Ondertussen zal het begrip "e-ticket" bij de gemiddelde Beatfreax-bezoeker aardig ingeburgerd zijn. De opmars van deze vernieuwing in ticketingland is niet te stuiten en mede te danken aan bedrijven als onze partner Ticketscript.

(KOMPAKT | 12") De Iraans-, Zweeds-, Duitse producer Aril Brikha levert al jaren lang de meeste schitterende techno producties af. Vanaf zijn eerste album Deeparture in Time gaat deze man al niet onopgemerkt. Ook zijn meeste recente 12” “Winter EP” is er weer een om in te lijsten. Voor een aantal misschien te “trancey”, maar voor velen ongetwijfeld een tranen-trekker.
(KOMPAKT | 3x12") The infamous German label Kompakt releases their seventh compilation, filled with some of their best previous released tracks and new material.
By renaming Delirium into Kompakt in the beginning of 1998, it was possible to manage the problem with the confusing jungle of names, logos, store, labels etc. By giving a long overdue trademark and brand to the meanwhile internationally known Cologne minimal sound. Under the same roof as the already known labels Profan and Studio 1, Kompakt comprises not only label and record store. Due to the constantly rising number of newcomers and new talents and the necessity to offer the utmost freedom for releases of weird, experimental sounds, it seemed only consequent enough to found Kompakt distribution. Strictly following the motto: "From the creator directly on to the turn-tables", Kompakt Distribution supplies national and international wholesalers and retailers with freshly-made home-productions. Moreover, special care is dedicated to the comprehensive back catalogue that has been developed over the years.
The label is based on the Kompakt record store located in Cologne which nowadays also has a webshop. In the last years Kompakt also got the booking agency and distributor for various artists and labels. In 2005 Kompakt started an MP3 online shop for own releases and releases by distributed labels.
Kompakt is owned by Wolfgang Voigt, Michael Mayer and Jürgen Paape.
