They remix tracks (Ensemble du Verre, Timo Garcia, Marbert Rocel), make avant-garde music together with Me Raabenstein (Lagerfeltz) and are always looking for new projects! This already resulted in loads of Compost Selections (Jazz, Downbeat, House, Experimental, Ambient, Remixes, Vocals, Tech House). They are the self-proclaimed archivers of the Compost Vault. From there they send their music into the wide world. Rupert & Mennert are living in The Netherlands. For years and years he did non- profit music related activities varying from DJing (border crossing genres), writing reviews for both online and printed magazines like DJBroadcast and the platform (and still does), (online) radioshows and creatively creating music selections / soundtracks for different purposes. Will we be back for a new chapter? Time will tell!Īrt-D-Fact, from The Netherlands, is what we call a passionate music enthusiast. Selected, mixed and presented with love for the music. Lots of respect to all the producers/artists involved. 3 will be remembered as a pleasant music journey containing Compost-highlights from back in the days to cheer you up a little in these strange times.
Enjoy this selection with (electronic) music from the highest quality standard, covering (electronic) music genres like broken beats, future jazz, jazzy (deep)house and UK garage. It was a real honour again to listen through all these wonderful bits from the rich Compost catalogue and to be able to create a new selection + the continuous mix. Both tracks were part of the classic 'Human Patterns' longplayer, released back in 1999.Īfter two successful selections we are very proud to release yet another chapter. With 'Corso' and 'Catalpa' Beanfield features with some true percussion-rich listening pearls. 3 kicks of with the powerful multi-tempo remix by Quantic (Tru Thoughts label) for Kyoto Jazz Massive's 'The Brightness Of These Days'. The continuous mix of Compost Nu Jazz Selection Vol. Selection #3 also contains some memorable tracks which were only released on vinyl by Compost Records, for example the wonderful Grand Unified VIP Mix of Joseph Malik's 'I Don't Want' and Steppah Huntah's energetic broken-beats creation 'Walk This Step'. The track selection process was a pleasant ride through a lot of groundbreaking releases between 19.
The third Compost Nu Jazz Selection probably is the most diverse one so far. After releasing the well-received Compost Nu Jazz Selection Volume 1 (released November 2017) and Volume 2 (released July 2019), Art-D-Fact and Rupert & Mennert again join forces.
