A Little Night Night Music

Eine Kleine Nacht Musik - German-only mixtape

Eine Kleine Nacht Musik is yet another alias of Henry Smithson, aka Riton, aka half of Gucci Soundsystem, producer and remixer extraordinare. He has a crazy new concept album coming out under this new Eine Kleine Nacht Musik moniker, based on the morotik-rhythm German music of the 70s and early 80s, and to introduce the piece, he made this wicked DJ mix. It features some artists I've heard of. That's just about all I can say, as, aside from the Kraftwerk songs, I don't know a single track on here, and that is really pleasing to me. Awesome.

Keep your eyes and ears peeled for EKNM - there's a single supposedly out now, and the album should be out in a few weeks on Modular, which is going to be accompanied by a ten-minute short film featuring some of the music from the record and starring Smithson himself. Crazy and brilliant.

PS: I'm on vacation this week, so the other robots will be holding down the fort.

This is pretty sweet. I hear the Kraftwerk, and I also hear some Cluster around 25 minutes in. Interesting mix, thanks for posting!
