Cloud Cuckooland/ Various - Cloud Cuckooland

2010 compilation of tracks from German musical renaissance man Eckart Rahn and his Kuckuck label. Christened with the German word for the cuckoo bird the label was titled in reference to the way that Rahn would lay musical eggs under an unassuming parent company like the feathered brood parasite. Combining three key elements, Rahn worked alongside two other collaborative forces to get Kuckuck off the ground. With himself taking care of A&R and contractual paperwork he enlisted the services of American DJ and record producer Mike Sondeck who would bring American electronic composer Sam Spence to the label along with his imported Moog synthesizers. Rahn would also share the company with a stylish design and advertising company from Munich called ConceptData who would supply Kuckuck's indelible graphic styling - exemplified by it's cuckoo logo and typeface and their unmistakable record labels. 20 tracks including cuts from Out of Focus, Ernst Schulz, Sonny Hennig, Deuter, Sam Spence and others. Finders Keepers.
