Kamerakino – Paradiso (CD/LP)

036_cover

Release: 29.09.2003
Cat#: Gomma 036 CD/LP

“We play square chamber-pop-music for people who live in single-rooms”

Kamerakino is a band from Germany with members from Berlin, Munich, Russia, Spain, Scotland and Turkey. It’s the former band of Franz Ferdinand’s guitar player Nick McCarthy who co–founded the band when he was living in Munich and played on the album. Kamerakino’s debut album reminds us of the 20ies, the 50ies, or 60ies – we associate things like cabaret, chansons, gipsies, dadaism, poetry, the balkan, mods and femmes fatales. You can imagine Berlin’s subculture back in the 20ies, but still there is a touch of dirty garage rock, no wave, disco to it.

Headman – It Rough (CD/2LP)

022_cover

Release: November 2002
Cat#: Gomma 022 CD/2LP

Headman aka Robi Insinna is one of the originators of the new Disco & Punk Funk movement. Since he started his recording career 4 years ago on Gomma he has developed into one of the leaders of the new DISCOrock scene.

He has been asked to remix the singles of artists such as Franz Ferdinand, The Rapture, Roxy Music and Annie. His new album (out March 2006) features guests such as Soulwax, Erol Alkan and The Rapture. The Headman sounds seems to get slowly to established in the world of music. But Robi Headman has been doing it for a long time.

The IT ROUGH album came out in 2001 – when bands like The Rapture, LCD Soundsystem, !!!, Radio 4 were not on the map yet.

The album was immediately chosen „Album of the Month“ in UK’s Jockey Slut Magazine. Released only in small edition, but got very popular especially in the New York and London club scenes. Now it’s over 4 years old and sounds still fresh. An exiting organic sounding, mostly instrumental disco album – which includes a good dose of 70ies rock influences as well as an elegant new wave vibe.

Leroy Hanghofer – White Trash (CD/2LP)

024_cover

Release: 10.09.2002
Cat#: Gomma 024 CD/2LP

LEROY HANGHOFER are MATHIAS MODICA aka MUNK and JONAS IMBERY aka TELONIUS..the two guys who run the GOMMA LABEL.  White Trash is a collection of maaaad discotracks.
This record is from 2001 but still sounds extremely FRESH. It fits perfectly now.

The original release of White Trash was sold out very fast and the record became popular with the first wave of New Disco Heads: James Murphy from LCD Soundsystem used to play it at his NYC parties and  Laurent Garnier called up the GOMMA boys to tell them how much he loved this record. Companys like Lagerfeld, Givenchy and also Colette used some tracks for their shows and cds.

Mathias Modica and partner Jonas Imbery created the side project LEROY HANGHOFER to release some discotracks they had produced mainly for playing them in their DJ sets. It’s very much FUN music – without being stupid. Disco with humor AND style!  P – Funk, Italodisco and punky elements. Recorded with only a few, but very characteristic instruments: a old, rare drum machine (Sequential Circuits – Prince used to use this on his first albums). Two old Synthesizer (bought for 50 euros) and a few samples from obscure east european 70ies rock records. Besides, the guys always play a lot of bass lines, piano and other instruments themselves and re-cut them afterwards.

Tracklist:
1) Bathroomboogie
2) Klon (Your Body)
3) The Favorit Song
4) Das Pi
5) Träumerei
6) Dumm 1
7) Dumm 2
8) H-Boy
9) Pling Plong
10) The Wei feat. Mocky & Ad Hawk
11) Klon (Your Body) Dance Edit
12) Hippie Spick
