  █ █▓░█     the Sonarkollektiv ORCHESTER - a Sonar Kollektiv          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     super-group made up of label artists and friends.         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     This fifteen musician strong ensemble is almost a big     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     band and so truly earns the name ôOrchesterö              █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     (Orchestra). The complete instrumentation is 3            █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     vocals, 4 strings, 3 horns and a full rhythm section.     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     The orchestra is led by the extremely capable VOLKER      █░▓█ █

  █ █▓░█     the rhythm section on drum-kit and percussion             █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     respectively. They have both previously done studio       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     work for JAZZANOVA so can be counted on to keep the       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     beats rolling - these guys are the backbone of the        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     SKO. All in all it truly is a star studded line-up of     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     only the most highly skilled musicians around. With a     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     team of musicians like this you would expect some         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     pretty impressive results, and the SKO sound is           █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     indeed nothing less than exceptional.                     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     SKO's repertoire is a cross selection of tunes from       █░▓█ █

  █ █▓░█     which cover a wide range from deep house and broken       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     beats to reggae and experimental hip hop. The new         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     arrangements for a 15 piece band, including many          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     acoustic instruments, put the tunes into an               █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     orchestral context and provide a brand new listening      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     experience.                                               █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     L.O.V.E. & You And I is a cover of the JAZZANOVA          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     track which was the opening number on their acclaimed     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     2002 album In Between (Compost). The SK ORCHESTER         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     rendition starts with gongs, strings and flutes which     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     creates a nice oriental feeling. But that lovely          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     swinging beat quickly comes in to carry you away. The     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     string crescendos are so dreamy and the breaks            █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     perfectly syncopated on this instrumental cover of        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     the JAZZANOVA classic. PAUL KLEBER from MICATONE          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     played bass on the original album version of this         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     fine track, so he surely knows what itÆs all about.       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     Atlantic by THIEF originally came out on the album        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     Sunchild on SK in 2007 (SK135CD/LP).                      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     Their songs have provided some of the highlights of       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     the popular Secret Love compilation series on Sonar       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     Kollektiv. ItÆs lovely to hear this original song in      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     the new SKO version.                                      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█                                                               █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     With afore mentioned PAUL KLEBER on bass, it makes        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     sense that a track from his own MICATONE project also     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     be included on the SKO album. Run first came out as a     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     12" on No Zession Recordings (SZ4003) in 2000 and was     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     also included on MICATONE's album Nine Songs (SZ4005)     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     the following year. The ensuing medley takes up the       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     hookline of JAZZANOVAÆs first club hit Fedimes Flight     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     and closes with a furious percussion solo as heard in     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     their rework for BELLE ET FOU. VOLKER MEITZ also          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     chose to arrange one of band member CLARA HILL's          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     songs, namely Silent Distance, for the SONAR              █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     KOLLEKTIV ORCHESTER. This lovely song was also            █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     originally a 12" single on Sonar Kollektiv (SK022)        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     and the track has been remixed by I:CUBE.                 █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     Unsurprisingly, CLARA sings the lead vocals on this       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     number herself but with the SKO behind her, the song      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     really takes on a new lease of life. Midnight             █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     Marauders by FAT FREDDYS DROP singer JOE DUKIE was an     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     underground hit for the Best Seven label, Sonar           █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     Kollektiv's dub-reggae sub-label run by JAZZANOVA         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     booker DANIEL BEST and can be heard here in a new SKO     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     version. SONAR KOLLEKTIV ORCHESTER have even              █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     reinterpreted AME's dance-floor hit Rej, bringing a       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     soulfully jazzy twist to this deep house classic          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     which earned enormous praise throughout the DJ            █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     community when it was released on Innervisions in         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     2005. Held Him First was a 12" by DEYAMPERT in 2003       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     (SK015). The original was produced and mixed by           █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     EXTENDED SPIRIT (aka JAZZANOVA members STEFAN             █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     LEISERING and AXEL REINEMER) and even featured SKO        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     members KALLE KALIMA and PAUL KLEBER on guitar and        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     double-bass respectively, so the tune was also a          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     natural choice for SKO to do and ESTHER COWENS has        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     added her beautiful vocal performance on it. As well      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     as L.O.V.E. & You And I, other JAZZANOVA compositions     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     that have been reconstructed by the SKO big band for      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     their debut album include No Use, and Boom Clicky         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     Boom Klack. The tune No Use also first appeared on        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     their album In Between (Jazzanova Compost Records,        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     JCR 027-2). CLARA HILL once again takes the mic on        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     this number giving it that special vocal delivery         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     that only she can, followed by yet another track from     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     the same album, Another New Day, in medley. After         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     that, we have the SKO version of Boom Clicky Boom         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     Klack (SK094), which is a perfect blend of both the       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█                                                               █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     MR. SCRUFF remix flavour and the original JAZZANOVA       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     arrangement.                                              █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     The original version of Africa was released in 2002       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     by MEITZ himself (12" on Airdrops). The SKO version       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     is a funky jazzy number with a wonderful afro feeling     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     throughout, driven on with PHILIPP KULLEN thumping        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     the congas as only he can. This fantastic album draws     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     to a close with an outro in the form of SKOs version      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     of How To Find Royal Jelly by THE LOST SCROLLS OF         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     HAMARIC - a delicious tune that was released in 2001      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     as a 7" single on Best Seven (SB7004). It, like the       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     rest of the album, has a gloriously warm and funky        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     sound. The arrangement throughout have a genuine          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     lounge feel with a tight horns section, lush strings,     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     fender rhodes and true-soul vocals. ItÆs a super          █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     hi-fi production thanks to VOLKER MEITZ who worked        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     with the band as producer on the whole SK ORCHESTER       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     project. This is heartfelt music for movin' on and        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     dancing your blues away.                                  █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     This hotly anticipated full length SK ORCHESTER album     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     (SK170CD/illicity) more than lives up to                  █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     expectations. Such a creative new collaborative           █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     project from some of Sonar Kollektiv's finest really      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     is a must have for fans of the label and the vibrant      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     scene of musicians that has grown up around it since      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     being founded by JAZZANOVA over ten years ago. SKO is     █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     a truly special and original project as it is not         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     just another "best of" or retrospective, but at the       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     same time still manages to celebrate the wealth of        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     great music that is the Sonar Kollektiv back              █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     catalogue by reworking previously released tunes in       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     the context of an orchestra. As anyone who witnessed      █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     their live premiere at the Sonar Kollektiv Festival       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     in TAPE CLUB, Berlin during POPKOMM last year will        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     know, the SONAR KOLLEKTIV ORCHESTER sounds just as        █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     fresh live on stage as they do on record. So here's       █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     hoping there will be a full tour to accompany the         █░▓█ █
  █ █▓░█     release of the album.                                     █░▓█ █
