mobilee's Back to Back compilation

the second disc of each compilation presenting a unique take on mobilee's music.

Back Volume Four, compiled and performed by And.id and B.A.N.D.

evolution with a two-disc extravaganza that is unlike anything you've ever heard before. While

Disc 1 compiles highlights from mobilee's discography over the past year, Disc 2 consists of

jazz interpretations of classic mobilee tracks, all of which have been painstakingly recorded,

arranged, and re-edited by And.id. These refreshing takes on some of mobilee's best tracks

over the years were recorded during live studio sessions with jazz musicians, whose use of real

instruments in performing mobilee tracks—not to mention And.id mixing and arranging—

breathes new life into these time-tested anthems.

The tracks selected for the first disc do well in showcasing mobilee's current musical diversity,

with hard-hitting techno from Pan-Pot (“Confronted”), forward-thinking house from GummiHz

(“Sleepless Nights”) and experimental downtempo from Exercise One (“No News Today”) being

among the tracks that make the cut. Recent signees Dan Curtin and Hector rub up against new

tracks from old-timers, amongst whom Anja Schneider, Marcin Czubala, and Sebo K are also

included. An exclusive track courtesy of And.id also makes it debut on this disc.

The second disc is a ride entirely of its own as And.Id takes classic

mobilee tracks and filters them through the lens of jazz with the help of his

B.A.N.D., comprised of both recent Berklee College of Music as well as

seasoned studio musicians. But don't be fooled: these aren't just jazz

covers. And.id has gone one step further, editing and arranging the

recorded instrumentals into an incredibly unique final product. Sebo K's

anthem “Horizons,” Pan-Pot's lush, piano-led track “Faces,” and “Rancho Relaxo,” Anja

Schneider's collaboration with Sebo K, are just some of the tracks taken to new heights on this

inventive new take on electronic dance music. But just in case that doesn't fully satiate your

appetite, we've also included the original versions of each of these tracks just for kicks.

Anyone's who's been paying attention to And.id knows he's got the jazz in him: he was raised

on jazz records and concerts and often integrates a trumpet into his live sets. What no one

could have imagined, however, is how well this interest and passion for swung beats and brass

instruments could combine with his renowned skills behind the boards. Four to the floor beats

get traded in for live instrumentation and creativity meets this classics on the newest volume of

the Back to Back compilation, with the end product finally confirming everyone's suspicions that

house and techno are far from dead.
