Kompakt Reveal Total 6 Tracklist, to Unveil Immer Label

The lil' label that could...is not so little anymore. Cologne's Kompakt is set to release the next installment in its semi-annual compilation series, Total 6, on August 15. The 2xCD, 4xLP set will feature a number of Kompakt favorites, some with new cuts and remixes, including an unreleased track from Jürgen Paape. And for those of you in Cologne at the end of August, there will be a release party on August 26, featuring sets by Justus Köhncke & Band, Reinhard Voigt, Rex the Dog, and Ferenc. DJs will include Michael Mayer, Superpitcher, DJ Koze, and several others.

In other Kompakt news, September 12 marks the release of DJ Koze's full-length debut, Kozi Comes Around , and on October 4, Kompakt will release a new album from Closer Musik's Matias Aguayo, which Michael Mayer describes as "absolutely epic."

On July 18, Michael Mayer will be launching a new label, Immer, and the first release will be called Null. We're told that the only thing known about this imprint is that it will specialize in re-releasing Mayer's favorite singles.

Finally, the recently opened Kompakt MP3 shop has sold more than 100,000 songs. Watch yourself, iTunes.
