All new titles compsed for this compilation.
On March 11th, 2011, Japan had to experience the most powerful earthquake of its history. Pictures of the following Tsunami were seen around the world. This natural catastrophe caused extensive and long lasting consequences. In one word: Fukushima.
Ten thousands of people died, hundred thousands are homeless. Families, children and old people are fighting for their livelihood. The world is shocked and takes share in the fate of the concerned. The quiet and proud japanese people welcome this solace. But even a country like Japan cannot manage the enormous challenges alone. Therefore, the consoling words have to be followed by action!
Based on this thought, Mellowjet-Records started the project "Electronic Music FOR LIFE" shortly after the catastrophe. The idea was to release a compilation and to donate the complete revenue to a charitable organisation. The response and readiness of the addressed artists to support this project was overwhelming. So, INTERDISC agreed to sponsor the first release of a double-cd-production. Even more artists joint the project.
The Eroc Mastering Ranch offered a free audio mastering. Company Rebeat offered the free digital marketing and added a special sponsoring package. A survey among the participating artists confirmed, that the revenue should be donated to the Deutsches Rotes Kreuz (DRK). Due to this remarkable development the DRK was convinced to support this project by allocating their logo. Within a few weeks only, Mellowjet-Records was able to compile and produce an excellent, 150 minutes long double-cd which involves all faces
of contemporary electronic music. Most of the 27 songs from 27 different bands and musicians have been composed exclusively for this project.
Only to mention some: Robert Schroeder, Eroc, Bernd Kistenmacher, Rolf Maier Bode, Harald Grosskopf, Mythos, Matthias Beine, Wellenfeld, Dithmar, moonbooter, Uwe Reckzeh, Spyra and many, many more. Besides dreamy sequences of Berlin School, powerful chorals, piano-ballades, orchestral works and danceable electronic music this double-cd offers as well experimental pieces, synthiepop, spacerock, chillout and ambient
music. Thus, this album should be part of every collection!
All artists as well as the label waive their share of profits. The whole revenue from sales of the double-cd and downloads will be donated to a project of the Deutsches Rotes Kreuz and will support the people in Japan directly.
Please support the victims in Japan by buying this album. Even if the world tends to forget quickly: the misery will remain in the everyday life of the people in Japan for a very long time.
Thank you very much!

The Duo „Wellenfeld“ created their debut-album „Cosmic Waves“ in the years 2003 and 2004. With their song “Monolith” the two “Ruhrpottler” Andreas Braun and Detlef Dominiczak reached top score at the “Schwinnungen-election 2003” in the category “best song”. This is remarkable for newcomers with a new “Electronical Music” which is signified by a distinctive stile from the very beginning on. Both musicians basically differ in their own musical background. Until the project “Wellenfeld” had been founded, Detlef, the older one, only consumed music passively, preferably “Krautrock”, whereas Andreas started to produce Techno and EBM-productions already in the 90th. Their background could not be more different. The “Wellenfeld”-style can be described as rhythm-accented and spherical with a high recognition factor. In fact, the EM-circle has been enriched by a modern facet.

Wellenfeld (Andreas Braun and Detlef Dominiczak) was the first act on MellowJet-Records. I am still very proud of it. Over the years I accompanied their music and was allowed to release it on my label. The 10th Wellenfeld album with the title "Ten" followed in 2017. At that time we had the idea for a compilation. Now, about a year later, it is finished. We made the song selection based on the sales and number of radio plays and put the most successful song of each album on this compilation. A recording of the album "Live Münster 2015" is also included as a bonus track. Based on the original recordings I mastered the album again fresh and with new possibilities. The result speaks for itself. New flow, modern sound and only the "best" songs.

Where the last album „Pandemie“ was dominated by powerful orchestral sounds, Wellenfeld returned with their latest work "Elements" back to their roots. Synthetic sounds definitely set the tone. The well-known, pleasant melancholy in their melodies combined with the typical monotone sequences has become the hallmark of Wellenfeld within the past 10 years. This includes also technoid spots with apocalyptic character. And that is exactly what makes "Elements" unique. Easily drifting beats and extra portion of bass are not necessarily new for Wellenfeld, but on "Elements" even more significant. Quick flashbacks to songs of past albums are probably not a coincidence, but in case they are it is even more fun. Overall, the album spreads a somehow gloomy character and fits perfectly with the upcoming dark season. So, 11 new songs arose in the last two years, each standing for itself merging into a single entity. Explicit recommendation… and not just for fans of Wellenfeld.

Crystal-clear electronic sounds, warm flats, strong melodies, smooth pop-arrangements and high emotion characterize the second “Wellenfeld”-album “Fuison”. No room for any other description. Besides gorgeous aprs, pads and electronical beats which animate dreamers and groovers at the same time, “Fusion” is an album with many faces. Fans of the debut-album “Cosmic Waves” will love “Fusion”. Both musicians, Andreas Braun and Detlef Dominiczak, worked more than one year on sound and melodies. The result is a perfect EM/Ambient-concept-album that will always sound new in its own distinctive manner.

Pulsating sequences and catchy melodies in one go can be found on their 5th CD: Phase 5. That is the result of analysing the first 4 Cds, when they wanted to find out, what is our style.
And definatly they have their own style. Phase 5 is relaxing and calm. Enjoy the 73 minutes in one go.

On time with the first days of spring the duo "Wellenfeld" returns with its new album "Sunshine". And this promise is being kept. Warm sounds in the typical Wellenfeld-robe, once gentle, once catchy melodies plus a well dosed dash of rhythm help us to leave the winter behind. Detlef Dominiczak and Andreas Braun took two years time to work on their new songs, discovered new stylistic elements and added them artfully. Songs like “Sleepwalker” are carried by monotonous sequencer lines which initially remind us of TD. Other songs like “Sine Fields” own a typical “Café del Mar”-character. With “Biowave“, Klangfarben“ and „New York“ they remain true to their own tradition and present three fantastic hymns in best Wellenfeld-style. Variety is guaranteed. Additionally they added two bonus tracks: “Floating” is a live-recording of the opening song from last Ambient-Experience in January 2007 at Rex Theater Wuppertal. The subsequent radio-cut of the hymn “New York” cares for the fast intermediate pleasure. “Sunshine” is the first “real” CD of Wellenfeld and grants a varied start into the forthcoming EM-summer. Let the sun-shine in your heart…

“Ten” is the 10th album from Wellenfeld within 13 years. So the title is explained. In 2004 Andreas Braun & Detlef Dominiczak started making their own style of Electronic Music. Over the years the Wellenfeld-sound changed from dark electronic to symphonic opus, to some warm and relaxing beachmusic and finally back to the pure electronic style. Although the last 9 albums were different and evolving, You could ever identify that it was Wellenfeld.
The new album “Ten” was first planned for 2016 but the artists decided to take more time to implant a different and new feel. And it was worth. When I first listened to the album I thought: “Damned good”. Warm basses, intelligent arrangements, great new melodies and a very special mood. The sound was different from the past albums and they added a good portion of solo parts to the songs, which is something new for Wellenfeld. The songs on Ten are very varied and You can explore a lot of details within the sound. Some may say that Wellenfeld come of age. In my eyes they put more and more elements in one album together and they still work on finishing their own style. Everything else would be boring. So Ten sounds more focused and concentrated and definitely more of contemporary EM than ever..

With their sixth album Wellenfeld goes to the beginning of everything: the Big Bang. Musically, it enters known ways, but they arranged a very cleverly hidden new sound world. So we can hear their way of: EBM, New Beat and Teutonic Beats.
This danceable, electronic dream music from the late 80s, was a pioneer for the later emergence of techno wave. On "The Big Bang", all these styles come together to mingle with the presence of an entirely new musical experience. Andreas Detlef Braun and Detlef Dominizcak do not get rid at any point of their typical floating melodies and pack past and future together in a timeless concept album. Even though their sixth album ends 3 minutes after the BigBang, it describes the way to a fantastic trip on the way there. Highly recommended.
