"Undefinition means more than not defining. Neither is it just re-defining. It expresses an urge for a perpetual state of change, an urge to feel oneself opening up to the plurality of reality.
Undefinition is rooted in discovering that the stability of human existence is not placed in traditions, systems and rules, but in the possibility to play and wonder; that humans, through play, can experience more of our reality."
- Marianne Klausen

UNdefinition is the title of the very first UNOIKI album compiling tracks from a well-respected bunch of producers, when it comes to innovative, visionary and cutting-edge electronic music and combining it with great artwork, special packaging and an philosophical essay!

UNdefinition is a risky trip into grey spaces exploring and discovering new musical ways, undefining static categories and searching for connections and relations between club and experiment or pop and art.

The producers were encouraged to forget about rules and limits to create music with a free, open mind reflecting about "UNdefinition".
So it is no wonder that the eleven tracks merge styles from IDM, Clicks & Cuts over Glitch, Electronica to Minimal, Dub- and Deep Techno in a clever, refreshing and emotional way.

UNdefinition is the first part of the trilogy: UNdefinition - Evaluation - Definition.

Feedback

Doudou Malicious (MultiVitamins/Safari Electronique)
Thanks a lot for the promo. Great compilation
"Sul.a - Révolution Solaire" is my favorite, but "Offtopic meets Sven Laux - 1 + e", "Superlauncher - Wormhole", "J-Lab & Hagen Daz - Unrequired", "Humeka - Blow Back Down", "Andrés Marcos - Texas Instrumental" are great too.

Sebastian Russell (Telegraph/MultiVitamins/My Best Friend/Adjunct)
Deep and cinematic, great compilation.

Hrdvsion (Wagon Repair/Living Records)
"MRZ: like the pads with the oddly looping melody / Superlauncher: reminds me of the darker plone songs...nice and moody / Humeka: i think i copied this song for my album...heh... love it / Dr.Nojoke: wooo eeee! spirally very bizarre beat... i like!"

m50/Area (Echospace/Wave Music/Mathematics)
I like the compilation. Definitely on the abstract side of things, excellent quality control. Bended is hot. 15/16 is super trippy. I like Definition as well... I can't give feedback on everything yet as I'm still digesting it, but certainly look for support from me on this.

Chaton (Plak/Perspectiv):
"what a nice project ! high end electronica, adventurous sound design...reminds me Mille Plateaux...my fav' tunes are from Choenyi and Storlon...full support from plak"

Jeff Samuel (Trapez, Poker Flat, Logistic)
"this is a great first release. i like track 2 the best but there is a very wide range in this compilation. it's nice to hear a label really trying to do something different."

Pheek (Archipel)
