All drama comes to an end! After years of work on the new site, we finally made it.

Here it is: The new www.rotaug.com

Filled with loads of projects collected over the last year we're proud to present the first major release of rotaug.com. Believe me it was not easy to find a way to produce a website fitting the needs of artists of so many different genres, but somehow we figured it out.

Enjoy!!!

the perfect answer to my former released "heroes" symphony singlesider! watch out! thank you john lennon for this amazing track. nothing more that i can say ... the "working class hero" by john lennon.

"I mostly make music to chill to, which is mainly sample based, but i do love my old synths too, so expect a fair amount of analogue sounds along with bits n bobs stolen from charity shop gems. Trying to concentrate on making a whole instrumental album, although I do have a fair few beats that just need some rhymes, so anyone who's up for that should message me."

that's the text written on 4teenth myspace website. the EP is a very nice 10track "album" that you can listen through from the beginning to the end without thinking  "lets forward that track" once. this shall be a recommendation for all you out there that do like smooth hip hop instrumentals with classical piano samples, "david axelrod" strings or/and little dubstep or funky breakbeat influence. the style of some tracks reminds me of the first vinyl i ever bought: "the 45 king -  grooves for a quiet storm" ...

[and if you like "this and that", also check the web for szenario beats again. i already wrote a post on him and his strictly instrumental debut release "sidestreets" two years ago and he just released his new album "schlichtes gold" with manuva from total chaos.]

... anyway: 4teenth's CD comes with a nice handnumbered and signed small slice of paper that says "there might never be an album" in the back. hopefully not! i loved to have more of that and especially on vinyl. support poverty records!

"4teenth - there might never be an album"
published by poverty records late 2007
