Release Notes :

When the then still young Frankfurt label Cocoon Recordings discovered the
long-playing format with its Compilation A in Summer 2000, probably nobody could
have, even approximately, foreseen the success story of this series. For ten
years now, the cocoon-style declination of the alphabet is a guarantor for
high-class and exclusively produced floor burners by the international Techno
and House elite, and, beyond that, a reliable indicator for the stylistic
bandwidth of contemporary electronic dance music. And even with the previous
editions A to I having set the bar damn' high, the J edition starts with a true
musical sensation, as the opener "Cocoon Dark Dub" comes from nobody less than
Moritz von Oswald. "Those who ? even just rudimentary ? have followed the
evolution of electronic music over the last twenty years, know about the
outstanding importance of von Oswald's timeless classics like "Domina", "M-4" or
the whole Basic Channel series. Insofar, "Cocoon Dark Dub" is maybe the nicest
birthday present at all, and an absolute honour for our label." (Sven VΣth) So,
initially, it's the heartbeat of Dub Techno that pulsates through a lonely piano
and noise fractals, and club world keeps its breath for a good eight minutes.
However, the Compilation J literally puts out all the stops over the following
110 minutes playtime and shows what modern electronic dance music has to offer
in these times. Mathias Kaden's intuition for the crowd and location is
legendary, his music is both distinctly ambitious and refreshing, and so is his
contribution "Rave Strikes Back". The Dial impresario Pantha Du Prince from
Hamburg is celebrating crystalline ice dance ("Bolder"), while CΘcille label
head Nick Curly, with his sensual Tribal House, is feasting the most compact
form of Disco Boogie that one can imagine ("Keep On"). With "SBooty", the
Kompakt ambassador DJ Koze, also from Hamburg, is flabbergasting the audience by
combining virtually incompatible elements. Improvised horn licks are whirring
through a flickering resonating body while the bass kick is filling up the
tropic ambient air. However, the invariably Cocoon policy to always support
interesting newcomers becomes visible in the contribution of Basti Grub from the
Rhine Neckar area, whose label H÷henregler is well-known for several musical
insider tips in the past. "Sick" is ascending into your brain immediately with
its melodic high-frequency hook line and mysterious vocals, matching perfectly
to the melancholic playfulness of the tracks by Guy Gerber. Deep Dish member Ali
Shirazinia aka Dubfire and the Parisian Popof are the ones to prove impressively
that you virtually can't go wrong with stringent Hypno Techno and a
diaphragm-shaking bass drum. Besides the above-mentioned, the J compilation
holds such well-known producers like Loco Dice, Extrawelt, Reboot and last not
least long-time Cocoon companion Ricardo Villalobos, whose 12-minutes-long dance
on the echo-filled "Humusweg" once again draws the bow to the Basic Channel
sound from another side, and leaves much room for own visions in between the
pulsing metronome of the bass line. In any case, the history of electronic dance
music has not been outtold so far.
