Kruder & Dorfmeister’s DJ-Kicks remains one of the series’ most iconic entries, now presented in its complete mixed form for the first time on vinyl. Remastered by Bernie Grundman, this edition captures the duo at their peak. Blending downtempo, drum & bass, acid and hip-hop, the Vienna pair move effortlessly between styles, linking Aquasky, Hardfloor and Thievery Corporation into a fluid, late-night continuum. Their approach balances precision and looseness, shaping a mix that feels both carefully assembled and instinctive. Two original cuts anchor the set: High Noon drifts on hazy flute and harmonica over broken rhythms, while Black Baby closes with slow-burning weight and atmosphere. First released in 1996, DJ-Kicks helped define a moment in electronic music. Decades on, its mood and pacing remain unmistakable.
