Disko Partizani - the hit title track of the latest album from SHANTEL - has in just a few weeks risen to become a worldwide anthem for the Balkan pop movement. The video has over a million clicks on YouTube and Myspace, and has been in heavy rotation on some of the hottest TV channels in France, Italy, Austria, Greece, Turkey and the Netherlands. As the 2008 European festival season begins, Essay Recordings presents a new, exclusive and strictly limited edition offering from SHANTEL: three brand-new versions of 'Disko Partizani' as reshaped by a congenial team of international remixers and producers, each of whom are great SHANTEL fans. Big, prime quality dancefloor hits are the result. And it gets even better: do you know of any place where electro, house, freestyle, hip hop and dub-heads shake hands, drink vodka and rock to DISKO PARTIZANI together? We know where: at ESSAY…;-) Stay tuned & listen to the sound of the continent!

Disko Partizani / Yamaha.Eletrico Remix Tommy Yamaha's project "The Strike Boys" is the one and only German act to have been featured on the English 'Wall of Sound' label. Since then the boys have been releasing with great success on the label Stereo Deluxe located in Berlin. Together with Ekki Eletrico from Trio Eletrico the two DJ's get bodies to shake and sweat at their 'Wildstyle' parties - the most successful club night in Germany. They achieved over 10 Top Ten positions in DCC (German Club Charts). As Yamaha.Eletrico they conquer the beautiful world of extravagate electronica. Yes indeed, both of them strongly recommend: 'Discosause ohne Tütenbrause' DISKO PARTIZANI / Marcus Darius meets Tricky Cris Remix Marcus Darius & Tricky Cris - hot producers from the reggae, dancehall & dub-tech scene - have previously succeeded as remixers of Sean Paul, Gentleman and Xavier Naidoo. Both come from Frankfurt - the secret capital of dub in Europe - and here they deliver a pumping dub bogle with sub bass that has quaked the underground clubs from Frankfurt to London. ESSAY RECORDINGS has spared no costs or effort to press these heavenly low frequencies onto vinyl.

Disko Partizani / Dublex Inc. Remix Dublex Inc. are the heroes of the lively club scene of Eastern and Western Europe. Internationally known as DJs, remixers and fashion designers, they charm disco boys and girls around the world with their mix of house and funky jazz flavours. Hot samples and breakbeats do the rest.

ABOUT SHANTEL

Former Frankfurt downtempo pioneer, today celebrated impressario of the famous Bucovina Club and considered Europe's chief selector DJ for ecstatic Balkan grooves. With his release "Bucovina Club", he showed that a boundary-free spirit of Balkan and South Eastern Europe music tunes was what a world, bored of luke warm electronica and a retromanic dancefloor culture, was waiting for: Big emotions, vodka excesses, passion and plenty of slack lyrics, all blend together into a splendid 65 min mix compilation. Bucovina Club is probably the most promising party and music concept since the advent of acid house. Believe it! Shantel is currently working on tracks for a new 12" plus more material, all to be released on "Bucovina Club 2", out in 2005
