XX, Pingipung. A Record Label Turns 20
10"-Vinyl
2002-2022, that’s 20 years of Pingipung! The German record label
celebrates its anniversary with exclusive tracks by a fine selection of
artists from the label roster as well as new names. Instead of looking
back at the classics, Pingipung chose to compile a kaleidoscopic preview
of possible future directions for the label.
The line-up features
playfully melancholic songs by Museum Of No Art, Peter Power or The
Notwist, an excursion to the desert by RVDS or a psychedelic take on Dub
in Tolouse Low Trax’ remix for the Ainu singer Umeko Ando. Artists such
as Anadol, Y Bülbül, MD Pallavi & Andi Otto, M.RUX, Sven Kacirek,
Schlammpeitziger, Peter Presto and F.S.Blumm are already well known to
the Pingipung audience. They contribute exclusive new tracks, adding to
their existing output on the label.
It’s impossible to file this
compilation under a genre, which is exactly the case with Pingipung in
general - bull’s eye. The collection of tracks is pressed in the perfect
format to match the Pingipung jubilee: A 2x10’’ vinyl in a gatefold
sleeve.
