One Year & A Day-Sound Exposure Vol. 2-One Year & A Day-Sound Exposure CD - Import

Following the success of the teaser mini-album "One Year & A Day The 5inch Files" that gained worldwide attention despite its limited pressing (a hand-numbered limited edition vinyl release, and the first ever 5inch series!), Equinox Records finally drops its second full length album, the second part of the sound exposure compilation series: "One Year & A Day A Sound Exposure Vol.2". This album is one of the biggest projects in my career. I have put together everything that defines my work for the label as well as what defines me as a DJ and a record collector. I am more than happy with the final result!" (DJ Scientist) Handpicked from a motley stack of demos and promotional CDs, Gnter Stppel (aka DJ Scientist), the founder of Equinox Records, assembled a product that features 14 outstanding tracks by some of todays most cutting-edge artists and producers. Spanning various genres and aesthetics, the compilation is as breathtaking in its breadth as it is in its execution. Whether it be a folk-rock inspired breakbeat banger such as 2econd Class Citizens "Wishing Well," the forward-thinking electronic prog-rock tune "Times Like This" by Free The Robots, the original post-instrumental Hip-Hop track "Tibetisches Gutenachtlied" by Aqua Luminus III, or the thrilling "Octobre" by electro/IDM-wunderkind Geste, the second volume of the series succeeds in representing the pioneering ethos Equinox strives to uphold. Likewise, Arcsins rock ballad "Scarlet Fever" juxtaposed with the bitter-sweet lyrics of Deadpan Darlings pop song "Laugh Track," Emynds inexorable electro tune "Identity Through Alterity," or the classical cinematic introduction by the famous 60s rock group The Peddlers, the "One Year & A Day" compilation covers a diverse range of styles and genres, illustrating the amalgam of sound Equinox is known for, resulting in nothing if not one of the most distinct and forceful collections of songs within the past several years.
