Viennese trippers Peter Kruder and Richard Dorfmeister fry up beats like a fine Wiener schnitzel. With crisp percussion, tender melodies, and subtle bass flavor, they more than know their way around the production kitchen. Take the remix skills of these two chefs de musique; add a dash of fresh electronic ingredients, including Roni Size, Rockers Hi-Fi, David Holmes, Alex Reece, and others; run it through a beats processor; and you have one sumptuous and definitely not calorie-free meal. Tastier sound bites can be sampled during the Roni Size "Heroes" course, as K&D strip down and reconstruct a new and improved recipe for downtempo soul. Lip-smacking good. --Daniel Shumate

URB
Kruder and Dorfmeister have been prolific remixers throughout their career and The K&D Sessions collects most of their more remarkable reworkings and let them ooze into each other through a filmy dub mix.

Album Description
Now available at a much lower price! The trip-hop production duo of Peter Kruder and Richard Dorfmeister has gained more fame for its stellar remixes and DJ sets than as producers of its own work. By engineering, reworking and remixing tracks by a cast of artists including Depeche Mode, William Orbit, Bomb the Bass, Lamb, Roni Size, David Holmes, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony and United Future Organization, the Austrian duo became one of the most respected names in the dance/electronica community. This 2 CD set is an essential title for any music library!

Customer Reviews

Sometimes you gotta chill
This is the best chill-out music, perfect for when you wanna relax and have a drink of wine or whatever. Worth every penny. It's got a cool, sexy and cerebral darkness to it that's not so overpowering that it makes the music less relaxing but instead adds a depth and mood you just don't get from other chill guys like Kinobe, although they're certainly not bad at what they do. Very atmospheric, rich, deep. Vaguely reminds me of walking around a European capital, although perhaps that's because the first time I heard it was during day off with some girls in Rome. And thankfully K&D is longer than the G-Stoned EP, which is also a masterpiece but not even a half-hour long. Kruder & Dorfmeister you're too good, we need more!
The CD booklet reminds me of something The Rolling Stones would do, which is wild considering how chill the music is, but again shows you don't have to be loud and abrasive to be rebellious.

Still a classic. Timeless.
Must be over five years since I first heard this album, but listening to it now it still sounds fresh. Yes that's a cliche, but with this album it is also true.

Funky, jazzy, sick bass lines - seminal. Buy it. You won't regret it.

Chilled Out Vibe...
Pretty chill music. Good for smoking to. Good trip-hop tunes to have playing at a get together.
