Some talk about the new wave of Dutch electronic artists but Amsterdam residents Franklin Reeves and James Nidecker have been on the edge of producing underground House and Techno music for quite a few years before being noticed by the international dance community.

But it wasn't until they met at the creative surroundings of downtown based 90Watts studios in 2009 that they joined forces. This led to a fresh collaboration of releases and compiling and mixing their first CD for the Minimal Techno series volume 6 (CD 2) which they nurtured into a deep vivid cross-over of House, Minimal and Tech-house. Besides own tracks you can also find tracks of James Teej, Gregor Tresher and many more at this second CD of this double album.

Sweet flavors for the ears but raw like sushi. Their upfront Deep Tech sound easily melts into an afterparty Ibiza sunset with a touch of Amsterdam chill while igniting your soundsystem with that typical Dutch pumping groove that conquers the hearts of House lovers everywhere.

Expect no standard of tracks which have been spinned by every DJ last summer on the festivals, but a fresh mix of well-known artists such as the brilliant dancefloor cracker 'Escape to Amsterdam' from Gregor Tresher (Great Stuff) which almost seems to be specially written for this CD.

The first CD of Minimal Techno 6 has been composed and mixed by label manager Carsten Schorr. This German artist is certainly not unknown in the Dance scene and has been working many years producing the compilations of Sven Vath at Cocoon. This CD has Techno written all over it with tracks from Nick Curly, Oliver Huntemann and Sascha Dive.  The track ' Dreamoto' comes of Carsten himself (as well as The Screw which is on CD 2) and this track will be released in the autumn of this year on Strøm recordings, James Nidecker´s label.
In short, a new compilation on the CD market, one it's worth listening to!
