Finally, the evolution of technology has reached the so-called untouchable vinyl: final scratch plays tracks instantly downloaded via wireless in the clubs, the mixer triggers the Live PA and the DJ does not appear in the club any longer because he rocks it via streaming. In between, some astonishing simple "innovations" show up and vinyl gets special. „Painted black!“, I know, it is a very well known quoted opinion of what the future would look like. Online sales have turned into an important source for many small labels. Alas, it is dangerous if trend-setting protagonists of the scene mark vinyl as archaic or even call the work with vinyl "... the way of the dinosaurs!" Vinyl is not dead! Working with MP3s, Wavs and Aiffs is more likely an enrichment of one's vinyl collection. In 2005 the production of vinyl increased, as well as the amount of newly founded labels. „bits to phono“ is not about archaic preferences, but about honouring the material which makes a DJmovement possible in the first place. Netlabels are an important part of the future; they are commercial platforms for artists and new styles and can hardly compete with the feeling of a tight-filled vinyl suitcase with all its proudly earned holy slices and rarities. In comparison an MP3 can seem too easily „fast downloaded and fast deleted“. It leaves less impact in the minds. It is a fact now, that many great artists publish their experimental, courage-filled tracks through the internet, and there is no better place to showcase these lovely works than on "archaic" vinyl. The double vinyl “bits to phono“ presents 8 tracks of different netlabels, which influences without any doubt the development of electronic music now and in future. Additionally, there will be a mixed CD called „bits to phono mix“ released with exclusive bonus tracks by Dapayk, Butane, So Inagawa, Tanaka Hideyuki, Mossa und Apendics Shuffle. This CD is mixed and compiled by Marcel Knopf.
