The grooves of the newest 3000Grad record contain nothing less than a „melody for millions“- and it even comes in triplicate! Typical of the Berlin-based project Funkwerkstatt, the original version casually strolls along in a housey pace. Lively synthesizer chords accompany the emotional voice of Dan Morro who creates a deep but pleasantly unpretentious atmosphere. Also in “Bass Muss Liebe Sein”, a primetime-compatible homage to the lower frequencies, his vocals melt with the pumping groove rather than standing out of it. On the flipside, Mollono.Bass presents his playful, spring-like version of “Melodie Für Millionen”, arranging a completely new instrumentation. Last but not least there is Spirit Catcher who hurls the original track through an electronic time tunnel… Catchy retro-sounds lend to the title not only a completely different atmosphere but also quite some hit potential.

3000 Grad stands for a organic style of modern electronic music. The label is one of the many projects of the 3000Grad artist collective from Mecklenburg, the scenic north of Germany. What began as an underground party operation in 1997 has developed into 3000Grad Records, its sister label Acker Records, a booking agency, the annual 3000Grad Festival, as well as various indoor events.
