DESCRIPTION:
Dark Tech With Kolsch On The Remix - here's a big reason to celebrate, as we face the 150th release on Cocoon Recordings! That's right, 150 prime cuts with a number of milestones. It's hard to single out any one for particular praise but even so, we still have something very special planned for the anniversary. With a certain affection, we wanted to present an artist from the region so it's with great pleasure that we can unveil "Countach" from the one and only Butch, as a more than worthy anniversary release. The native Mainzer and sometime Berliner is without doubt one of the most dazzling German Tech-House artists of the moment. His performances contain a full dose of funkiness and his self-made promo videos never fail to entertain, providing a lot of fun in the process. First and foremost though, Butch is an exceptional producer, who, as one of the chosen few, knows how to mix together those special ingredients that drag us onto the dance floor again and again. What's more, since we really have something to celebrate, we don't just have an original from Butch, it's accompanied by a remix from none other than Kölsch!
If the term "man of the moment" applies to any artist then it's got to be Kölsch! At least that's true when it comes to hypnotic techno with a subtle yet seductive touch of trance. Kölsch is currently operating on another level. Whatever he touches turns to gold, turns moments on the dance floor into unforgettable experiences to be written down in the annals of techno.
His Kompakt release "Cassiopeia", as well as his remixes including the Chemical Brothers, stand out as musical testimonies of the past two years. The series of musical landmarks from the house of Kölsch is endless and his remix of Butch's "Countach" is no exception!
With poise and purpose like the Lamborghini of the same name, Kölsch takes us on an epic journey with his remix here, but as things progress he still has the foresight to jams on the brakes, keeping the dance floor honest by slowing things down to cruise control for the middle of his ride. What a trip, a true adventure, a techno road movie that could only come from Kölsch!
Of course, after a remix like that, there's not much left to say but this is techno and our man Butch is anything but normal! He just knows instinctively how to bring things to the boil and demonstrates it very impressively again on his original version. Implementing a 'nasty' arpeggio line that captivates us before being hunted down by a prime-time filter, Butch summons up an acid monster that works without a 303 but is no less effective. If that's not enough Butch also proves himself a master of ecstatic dance during the closing sections, serving up an emotional string arrangement that glimmers and shines. As a result, "Countach" with his nice fat strings becomes an instant dance floor catcher.
It'll probably be very difficult to pick a favourite from these two mixes, which makes this cut even fatter! It's a great release brimming with pathos and full-on emotions.

There are more artists using this name:
1) Butch is a DJ, producer and remixer. As soon as he steps behind the decks or into his studio his only ambition is to find the perfect sound which transforms the dancefloor into an ecstatic crowd. His unique productions and remixes transcends between Neo-Trance, Techno and Minimal and are defined through their high quality sound productions and the trademark sounds, which have enabled him to release productions on renowned labels such as Great Stuff, Craft Music, BluFin and Stil vor Talent (Oliver Koletzki’s label).
His first production for Craft Music, an impulsive remix for Whebba’s production “Mary’s Army” found world-wide recognition with Key-DJs and fans of electronic music. Shortly afterwards his first own single followed for Tomcraft’s label entitled “Life is Deadly”. This production found support with DJ greats such as Deep Dish, John Acquaviva, Benny Benassi and Oliver Koletzki.
Already mastered is his follow-up for Great Stuff called “On the Line” which boasts remixes by Oxia, Pig & Dan and Swen Weber, which presumably will be released in September 2007. His newest project is a remix for probably one of the most wanted producers of minimal-techno at the moment. Stay tuned…
