Jochen Trappe is the first newcomer on Connaisseur. At the early age of five, he played the trumpet, however his enthusiasm for electronic music soon led him in other directions. At the age of 15, he took his first steps towards music production with his own computer.
Today, the student of computer sciences is so adept, that he will occasionally program his own music software. His only release up to now was a single track on a mini compilation on Neue Heimat. This track, however, was frequently played, for example by Miss Kittin. Our man from Kiel, in the north of Germany, excites with a very distinct own style of fresh beats and inventive sounds between noisy roughness and digital sweetness and lots of funk – in one word: Technofunk.

Organic is everything but organic. It is a digital monster packed with glitchy and noisy sound fragments. This is contrasted by a very funky and almost classic bassline which drives the track on and on. The massive break surprises with heavy percussion elements and an unobtrusive jazz feeling. A soaring acidline finally renders this piece of music a huge club track.

Organic (Plain Babicz Style) is Techno like an enormous V8 engine. Robert Babicz aka Rob Acid, one of the founding fathers of German Techno, blows up the original with his own typical style and ultimately also adds a portion of emotion. Killer!

Technofunk is what the title implies and epitomizes Jochen’s trademark sound. A track which thrives on it’s contradictions. Basically very classic in the choice of sounds and structure, were it not for the serrating uprising sequence which drills this track deep into your mind. For early morning sessions…

Same procedure as last time: To paticipate just say "here!" and a few words about the tracks.

Deadline: February 18th, 2006

wooooooooooow!!

organic - really amazing! really love the quirky/glitchy sounds and clicks, similiar to the new ryan crosson productions in one way

this track all the things that i look for in tracks, lots of crazy sounds and funk and groove for the dancefloor!

organic babics style - nice and chill track, love the melody rob has used here, a bit trippy, good late-nigth track for the afterhours!

technofunk - very good aswell, but not at the same level as the other two tracks, but definately a good track which completes a really good release (again from connaisseur)!

will def. buy this one when it's out as i've done with the chardronnet and the afrilounge releases), but always nice with a contest, so:

HERE!!

Don't like the third track that much but the first two are simply beautifull...

Jesus!

This kid has talent ... serious balls on the floor tracks!
and Babicz's version is venomous!

I won the first one but man i'm gonna have to say HERE!

Organic - just hooks you right away with that bassline then gets more and more funky and intricate till your like there's no way it can get any better...then it does!

Technofunk- filthy classic technoize wrapped in smooth ass!

HERE!

Organic - I have to agree that its definatly not organic. The dry glitch nature of the tracks foundation is warmed up by the funk full bassline and soothed over by the herbertesque draggy hats.

Organic RMX - Feeling a little closer to organic in nature this remix sets out on a slightly spacey dream full of emotion and sensation. I really enjoyed this version.

Technofunk - This feels like the more jackin of the 3 cuts. With the groaning of the drill and the nice chord shots. Great for the dance floor.

organic - sounds neat. it flows very smoothly, the body feels invited to flow with the track as well. perfect to close a trippy set or warming up some magda-style night.

organic (plain babicz style) - what else to say? it IS the babicz style set upon a beautiful track. excellente results.

technofunk - don´t particularily like the track by itself; mixed might sound better though. maybe it´s a little 'loud', but rhythm is good. i also like those cuts in the middle.

good work, congrats to the connaisseur staff.
