Release Notes
Bottoms Up: Two Decades of Sofa Surfing!
The celebration of 20 years of Sofa Surfers presents a selection of new songs
and freshed up connections, with old companions for all crucial reworks
including features by Daelek, Oddateee, Jeb Loy Nicols, and Junior Delgado.
In 1997, Transit kicked off a musical journey for the Sofa Surfers that has
brought them to the wildest corners of the audio galaxy. Outside, in the year
1997, Dolly the clone sheep and Hale-Bopp the comet were causing an uproar.
Meanwhile, the band were tucked away in the studio, tinkering on their very
own vision of a dark, cinematic groove. With resounding success: Dorfmeister's
remix of the song "Sofa Rockers" catapulted the troupe onto the playlists of a
host of international DJs in a flash. And that was just the beginning. Release
parties, tours, and remixes were to follow, not to mention numerous movie
soundtracks. Large festivals and countless clubs were played in over 25
countries. A retrospective? Not really. Now, the band lean back, open a bottle
of champagne, and let a thousand past stories and experiences flow by. 20
years of band history -- now that's a reason to celebrate. But the Sofa
Surfers want something more than just a celebration for their anniversary.
Instead of a simple "Best of", they've cooked up a very special idea. One
could see 20 as a rework and a step forward. A lot has changed; the music
business also has different rules than 20 years ago. There are enough reasons
for the Sofa Surfers to freshen up the connections with their old companions
and deliver a musical oeuvre with a sharp eye for the present and the future.
It's not like the songs on 20 weren't still clearly the Sofa Surfers. These
new versions, however, are definitely different -- and their various
collaborators over the last decades even came together to completely re-record
their charismatic vocals. Tighter, without compromise, and crisp are
attributes that spontaneously come to mind. In addition to classics and
reworks, there are also totally new songs, leading the way in previously
unsuspected directions. 20 is clearly not just for diehard fans and
companions, it will also captivate new listeners. Features Oddateee, Junior
Delgado, Dälek & Dev1, Issi Honi, MC Santana & Rox, and Jeb Loy Nichols.
