The deep house crew brings you once again a high quality release of
soulful dance music.. music with emotion that deserves the promotion..

Jorg Burger rivals Wolfgang Voigt as producer with the largest number
of pseudonyms and projects (ambient techno as Triola, beatless
ambient as Geometric Farms, electro-guitar pop as Trinkwasser and
hard minimal as Pop Up, amongst others) but The Modernist remains his
favoured moniker. Regardless of style, his productions glisten like
the sunniest pop tune, helped by a fondness for guitars, chiming
synth tones and voices shot through vocoders.
Thus it's not surprising to find his first mix CD titled "Popular
Songs", the premiere release on Stefan Struever's Collectors Series.
Struever was responsible for the DJ Kicks compilations, and in Burger
they have found a kindred spirit to continue their anything-goes
enthusiasm. "Popular Songs" recalls Erland Oye's jovial DJ Kicks set,
with Burger gleefully following Oye's amusing 'DJ rules': keep them
dancing, ensure itÆs well ventilated, and make them think you're a
rock star.
There's also a heavy dose of Superpitcher-inspired microgoth
miserablism which, offset against Burger's delight in spit and
polish, results in much revelling in heartbreak. The vocals appear on
every track, but they're gasped, moaned or breathed through
processors. Closer Musik's introduction to '1,2,3 (No Gravity)'
starts things off, all heady atmosphere and expectation, before the
chiseled beats of Mikkel Metal's 'Microho' are introduced, snatches
of surf guitar washed beside a drowning vocal. Vocals appear on every
cut, gasped moaned and effected to add further hints of troubled
romance. Burger runs through a collection of favourites, er, popular
classics and a few exclusives of his own: 'Freifeld' as Triola, a
brief snatch of trademark Burger shudder; and the plucked guitar and
female vocals of Autobianchi's 'Stay'. The Modernist's 'Protest Song'
adds unpleasantly over-processed male voices to thickly sliced
clangs, but 'Mushroom Angels', his mash-up of Superpitcher's 'Even
Angels' and 'Mushroom', is glorious. Taking the best moments of each
and piling on additional piano chords - a la 'Happiness' - Burger
somehow manages to eclipse both tracks with this simple exercise.
Ada's 'Livedriver' is given the Burger treatment by B. Movement,
subtly enhancing the original without overwhelming it; elsewhere
Telepopmusik's 'Breathe' sends words through AM radio hiss to emerge
wistful and yearning, and Erland Oye with Morgan Geist cuts through
the dominant fog and static with sharp electro gestures, lamenting
lost youth and singing about car crashes. Superpitcher's mix of
Dntel's 'This Is The Dream of Evan and Chan' makes another - welcome
and fitting - appearance, Repair provides two pleasingly hazy
numbers, and Basic Channel's "Round Two" gets remembered before the
album closes, jarringly, with Scritti Politti's 'The Boom Boom Bap'.
Paradoxically for an album so united in mood there are some rough
transitions, but that's a minor quibble where the chief concern is
delivering quality songs. We'll assume it was mixed digitally as
there is not a crease to be found, and digital perfection is more in
line with The Modernist's futurist ethos. For a fine collection of
Cologne inspired techno pop look no further.
