You thought it was a joke when Kompakt Records released a record named after Cologne's local beer, Kölsch. But you were wrong. Rune Riley Kölsch is not a joke. He's a tall Danish guy and it's quite likely that you've already heard some of his tracks out in a club, don’t you remember one of the best track of 2010 : “Loreley”? Maybe too something from his amazing Ink & Needle series on his own Tattoo imprint or the track he's most known for: “Calabria” featuring Crystal Waters under his nickname Rune. On the 14th November 2011 he will released his new “Opa EP”.

A. Kölsch – Opa
B. Kölsch – Der alte

After his impressive debut on Kompakt Extra "Loreley/Rheingold" Kölsch is back with another killer double header.

"Opa" is one of the most unusual but yet amazingly effective techno tracks we've heard this year. It's steroid-driven funk with a heavily mental edge and powerful enough to lift the roof of any club. "Der Alte" pays tribute to Germany's long running TV series "The Old Man" with a rather juvenile sounding piano anthem that sits comfortably between balearic disco and Detroit techno. Excellent!

Amazing EP, Mr Kölsch!
