Kauf – Regrowth LP

So regular readers will know we've long been fans of Kauf and his melancholic melodic emotion-laden brand of Electonica and finally we have an album and surprise surprise it's quite wonderful. Regrowth as an LP is that rare thing in modern music a cohesive journey. In a time where, I'd say, 99% of albums feel pieced together after the fact an album like this where it's clearly been curated to fill out the details of a...

Kauf – Limestone

I think I speak for both Fourbearsjr and myself in stressing how important emotion is in the music we enjoy. I understand that emotion is a very difficult quality to pinpoint in words with any subtleness. Love, Happiness, Sadness, Anger, Pain! All great words that convey an emotional point and leave no real room for interpretation. But when you move away from the written medium emotion becomes much harder to explain. Yet it's something that really...

Kauf – Pacify

I always feel like I start any post about Kauf with "we're big fans around here" but it's a truth that Kaufs music has never failed to disappoint us. Emotive, melodic, dark and light in equal measures. Sometimes an artist just resonates with you and I think i speak for both myself and Fourbearsjr in saying, uhm, we're big fans of Kauf around these parts. 🙂 So it was not without much glee that...

Kauf – Key To Life (Ambassadeurs Remix)

We've been running the walktotwork for about 4 years now (I think) and whilst we know we're not a huge website we like to think we contribute a little. Being not huge allows us to really just go with what our hearts tell is and pick music that we genuinely love, sometimes that throws a curve ball into the selection (but hey, who doesn't have their own guilty pleasures?) but that also affords us the time and space to...

Kauf – Key to Life

There are some tracks that just define moments for you, and lately life has been moving pretty fast. As such I'm glad it's the weekend and I can enjoy the last few days of summer. Sat on the terrace, listening to beautiful summery music. On my playlist for the last few days and perfect for these moments is the latest track Key to Life from a favourite of ours Kauf. As I've said we've featured...

Kauf – A Ruin

This weekend was mainly spent packing our home up ahead of the moves coming in. The result of which was as the TV disappeared I was free to play music too my hearts content. I've got a pretty big music collection but it never ceases to amaze me how you can get fixated on one track for a prolonged period of time, and over the weekend my wife and son must have been sick of hearing A Ruin...

Kauf – Through The Yard (Fort Romeau Remix)

Permanent Vacation is a popular label around here, I think it's one of the most featured labels on this blog (if memory serves), but it feels like a while since we featured anything from them – luckily we were sent a copy of LA based Kauf's – Though the Way and even though we've been a bit slow getting around to it, I thought i'd feature it as I've been playing it a lot this week on my commute....

Aapie

Aapie was born and grew up in London but now lives in Paris, France where he fails to fit in on a daily basis. He's been a somewhat mediocre DJ and club promoter for over 15 years and is curator of the Interesting Blends blog, as well as contributor to The Walk to Work. Dad, family man, avid collector of music - in that order.

FourbearsJr

FourbearsJr lives on a small island in the Mediterranean, but before escaping to his own personal paradise he ran many club nights across many genres and times in many cities (mainly London), some of them successfully. He is a father and family man, a family who he regularly subjects to his opinionated selections (they have nowhere else to go).
