Michael Fakesch - Exchange

* Michael Fakesch used to be one half of Funkstörung (R.I.P.). From 1994 until their break-up in 2006 the two electronicwizards have been pioneers in combining weird beats, digital Electro-madness and beautiful melodies. Their mercilessremixes for Björk and Wu-Tang Clan marked their breakthrough and gained them international fame.* After the decease of Funkstörung Michael Fakesch concentrated on doing soun ddesigns for commercials (e.g. Toyota,Sony, Vodafone, Kia, Philips,....) und even won the Grand Prix 2009 of the Cannes Golden Lions. He did music forshortmovies (e.g. 'Between'), he has reprocessed soundtracks (e.g. for the Oscar awarded Shortfilm 'Glas'), did drafts forHollywood scores (e.g. 'Shoot Em Up') and - of course- also did remixes!* For the remix compilation 'Exchange' Michael Fakesch collected all his best remixes and therewith builds up onFunkstörung's milestones 'Additional Productions' or 'Viceversa'. Featured are his remixes of the likes of NOTWIST,JEAN JACQUES PERRY, HERBERT, BOOKA SHADE, MR OIZO,JIMMY EDGAR, BOMB THE BASS and more..* Due to the fact most of the remixes never have been released or just have been available in very limited amounts, thisremix compilation can be considered to be a new Fakesch album, whose predecessor 'dos' (!K7 Records) is almost 3years of age.*
