Kompakt Presents: Velvet Desert Music Vol. 3
#kompakt #vinyl #indiemusic
In the vast realm of ambient landscapes, Kompakt proudly announces the return of an acclaimed journey: the third volume of Jörg Burger’s Velvet Desert Music compilation series. This collection is not merely an album, but an ethereal odyssey that strikes a harmonious balance between cinematic soundscapes, ambient pop melodies, and the mind-expanding aura of psychedelia.
In Velvet Desert Music Vol. 3, Burger, along with a consortium of talented artists, embarks on a mesmeric detour from the pulsating rhythms of the dancefloor – a realm Kompakt has deftly navigated for years. The result is an entrancing compilation of nocturnal ambiance that seems to glimmer beneath a moonlit sky.
The ethos of Velvet Desert Music is inclusivity, embracing a myriad of sonic experiences. Burger’s vision for this volume encompasses music that transports listeners from the sun-scorched expanse of the desert to the enigmatic vastness of the velvet universe. Each track feels like a chapter in a narrative, an evolving tale of discovery and introspection.
The present volume champions the spirit of collaboration. While returning artists such as The Novotones, Mount Obsidian, The Golden Bug, Paulor, and Sascha Funke continue to enchant, new entrants Flug 8, Seb Martel (solo and in conjunction with Chocolate Genius and Zsela as La Finca) add fresh dimensions to the soundscape. Burger himself graces the compilation in multiple avatars, partnering with Fritz Ackermann, Max Würden, Thore Pfeiffer, and more.
Velvet Desert Music Vol. 3 is more than a compilation – it’s a sonic mirage, a dream sequence straight out of an avant-garde film. It beckons the listener into its embrace, where the boundaries of reality blur and the mind is free to wander.
As always, Kompakt invites aficionados of sound to delve into this experience, to let go of the familiar and surrender to the allure of the unknown.
