First off, if you do not have a clue what I'm getting at here, be advised, there's a thing out there called Wikipedia which tells you things - like THESE.

Having clarified that, we are proud to announce a free release called KSO 10 (Trees), a collaboration effort between DJ Kompact and renown Brooklyn rap-artist Cerebral Vortex. It's a quite explicit ode to the high life and also a teaser to the forthcoming KORG DS-10 project EP by Kompact called One Week.

So, without further ado, you can either download it directly from this site:

DOWNLOAD (zipped mp3, 320kbps)

Check out the PROJECT SITE

...or obtain the release in every imaginable format from the brand new and shiny

BANDCAMP SITE.

i am here to welcome 2010 with the no_06 of my "untitled in case" series. instant photographs of the urban space, it's function, architecture and mystic.
this time i have chosen to work with an already existing loop-based piece of music called "hold up" by rotaug's very own dj kompact.
on the paint: kryot. reflecting his surroundings - a savaged drainage ditch in the suburb of vienna. enjoy and sry for the wait. no_07 is coming soon.

untitled_in_case_no_06 (project site). the "view video" button is on the upper left side. enjoy.

also don't miss my new and massively updated website. now including texts to most of my works in english and german. still beta, but ?? worth the click.

Yo!

As you might have noticed already, over the last couple of days your rotaug.com experience might not have been as joyful as usual since we had some trouble with our server. But thanks to Rotaug's own mighty Berserka and Willi from Typoheads we're back online again with lots of info coming your way. Watch out!

The Vertual Vertigo Europe Tour, which started last Friday at Café Strom, Linz (Thx to Flip...) has reached a peak last Saturday in Innbruck with a great lineup and a incredible partycrowd! Thanks go out to Albi, Monomassive, Mosch and the rest of the crews for having us and Amewu, Wisdom and especially DJ Werd for their gifted life performance and for sharing the stage with us. It's been a BLAST!

But it's not over yet. The Tour continues TODAY Monday, June 8th at Café Leopold, MQ Vienna at 22:00 with FREE entry! So come bring a couple of friends if you want to enjoy a monday night like no other before...

After the Austria shows, we will be heading up to Berlin to perform at the official Vertual Vertigo "Sparkies Bungalow" CD Release party alongside Berlin based producer 8bit on Wednesday, June 10th.

Last but not least, Sonido Ojo Rojo has been hard at work too with 2 new releases coming up this summer: Hart & Zart 12" by Obahuba and Illuminate feat. 215 The Freshest Kidz 7" by DJ Kompact. Go check it out at our Release Page.

That's about all for now, stay tuned for media documenting the tour soon!

lens digitalized one of the most important milestones in ROTAUG HISTORY. the rotaug mixtape #1 called

"ICHIBAN" by DJ CRAAK

which means: the first time our name ROTAUG was officially written on something concrete - like the tape cover of this strictly limited edition of 30 tapes - and since then stands for our connection of friends sharing the same artistic interests.

listen to a part of our musical roots.

the sounds of the beatnuts, masterminds, mos def, dj honda, ..., pete rock and some extreme scratchin and juggeling by dj craak back in 1999.
