It only makes sense to roll things off right by letting you get to know a bit about one of the most beloved artists to have emerged on KOMPAKT ever--THE FIELD.

Goes without saying that it's been one hell of a whirlpast year for Stockholm-based Axel Wilner--a year ago none of us (including Axel) ever imagined everything that's happened to the guy... his album From Here We Go Sublime immediately leaped to become the biggest crossover indie-dance releases on KOMPAKT since BURGER/INK's Las Vegas was licensed to MATADOR way back when... we've been elated by the many people would be touched by his 'nu-gaze' style of combining familiar music sources into layers and layers of blissful repetition.

Hopefully some of you witnessed the fitness as he opened for !!! on their recent tour of the states, or heard his brand-spanking new remix of our favorite BATTLES song Tontoon fellow RCRD LBL-mates WARP... Brazilian readers can now go see him out on the road with LCD SOUNDSYSTEM... we'll be posting a tour diary from that jaunt soon, so stay tuned.

In the meantime, for those of you that yet uninitiated with our sailor boy, we're glad to offer you this firm fan favorite for free, "Over the Ice".
