Occasionally, an album comes along that seems to capture the mood of the times. The K&D Sessions was one such album. In the late 1990s, no after-party, smoking session or cozy Sunday afternoon was complete without Kruder & Dorfmeister from Bang & Olufsen. Now, approaching its 25th anniversary, the story of this iconic release, bathed in a silver cloud of smoke, is still a star in the music firmament, shining ever brighter with the passing of time. The original has now sold well over a million copies, and it's hard to imagine that a mix or remix compilation could spark such a movement as The K&D Sessions.
To celebrate this monumental milestone, a limited edition 6LP and 3CD boxset of The K&D Sessions has been compiled, mastered and edited for a luxurious listening experience, with newly designed inner sleeves using unseen photos from the original photo shoot. The box comes with a forty-page booklet containing a host of other never-before-seen photos from the same shoot and notes telling humorous stories surrounding the duo and the people who spent time with them during this period. Included on the 6th LP is their legendary 11-minute shimmering remix of Madonna's "Nothing Really Matters". The 6th LP also includes Peter Kruder's power cut mix of Roni Size's "Heroes" and K&D's remix of U.F.O, "L.O.V.E." There are also two alternative remixes by Lewis Taylor, one of which is fully dubbed and the other uses the vocal line for this beautiful gem "Lucky", as well as a special remix of "Speechless" by Count Basic. These two tracks have become an integral part of K&D's sets and now take their rightful place in "The Sessions" canon.
K&D are known for taking only the vocal stems of the music they choose for their remixes and building a whole new set of arrangements around these pieces of original source material. "For all remixes, it was of utmost importance for us to use only the vocals," Peter emphasizes. "We never used anything from the original tracks except that. We wrote a whole new song around those vocals. That's why we feel like this record is our record rather than a remix album." The K&D Sessions was pretty monumental. It was a time when remixers were revered more than the original artists whose work they were messing with. And the strange thing about it was that it sounded as much like a Kruder & Dorfmeister artist album as anything else they might have done.
