Welcome to a new official Konnoo Records online music shop Version 1.1. This service is created mainly for the reason to be able to offer a better price as well as a more personalized shopping experience. V1.1 will run in parallel to our reseller's shop, providing additional channel for Konnoo music. [When shop status is "open", this means we accept orders and you can buy the music as described; it may be also "closed" temporarily- in this case you should not place orders and wait until its "open" again, or shop at the reseller's shop].
Here you can purchase a whole albums or individual songs delivered to you on a special custom CD-ROM option, signed on top by Konnoo! Thus, this is what we call buying music Semi-virtually. Now for the first time fans or customers can choose to purchase music directly from Konnoo Records. You won't get a factory-dublicated "all-the-same" fancy CD here, just an unique CD-ROM for PC/Mac computers with original signature (plus Konnoo Records business card). We think, currently this is an excellent (and less expensive) individual alternative to a plain "virtual" purchase of music online from our reseller. To start your shopping, just follow these few simple steps:
1. Use "Shipping to" button and select the option which is the must appropriate to yours country location (for example: if you live in Germany, select Europe. If you are not from Europe, Asia, Americas or Australia, select Others option). You only need to add Shipping to cart once. Then select album(s) and/or track(s) and add 'em to cart (skroll down to see all release infos and buttons available). Repeat the process as many times as you want by adding songs and/or albums to cart individually and then selecting "Continue shopping".
2. Proceed with payment using the secure Paypal-powered online payment system. In the "Instruction for seller" field remember to enter your e-mail and address where you want the CDROM to be shipped.
3. After you confirmed and finished the payment, you will be re-directed back to this page. The label then will receive order confirmation from Paypal and will proceed with CDROM preparation. After CDROM is ready and signed on by Konnoo, the label's shipping officer will ship it to you. Please allow 5 business days for your order to be processed and shipped.
P.S.
In function our V1.1 service is very similar to an "old fashioned, 80s-styled" remote music shop (you pre-pay your order and then music is mailed to you). Perhaps even better to compare this process to an order from a pizza shop! (pizza is not really a "fast food", firstly its all about the tradition :)
Please note, Konnoo Records releases music only for your own personal and maybe close friends/family enjoyment. Any commercial use and playback without written permission are strictly prohibited.
MAZARINE KLIFFS 2
Tracklist (in this order): Miracle Boat / Topspeed / Old Method / Empty Force / Plus One / Tower In The Clouds / Matsurinoban [Total runtime is about 53 minutes]
Information: Some years ago, when more and more people started to use computers and mp3-players as a primary source for listening to a pre-recorded music, Konnoo Records began to use the terms "www-release" and "www-album" for Konnoo online releases, therefore inventing a very logical name for a completely electronic releases. This new album is not an exception, being as much "www" as it only can be, so that you can't get it on CD from anywhere. While being portable and nature-friendly (as no materials are used for the CD-production) it has also as good or even better sound quality, because all of the label's www-releases sold as a maximum resolution mp3-files (not to mention that all songs get mastered for every release). Based around totally re-recorded versions of tracks from original Mazarine Kliffs- Deep Mixes (which is of course still as great with its own special "deep" sound image) , this powerful www-album brings you Konnoo music at its best. Opening it with a revolutionary song Miracle Boat, you travel on the back of Topspeed-named horse, right into an industrial area of Old Method. While cooking an Empty Force you then relax with Plus One. After your wake-up moment you take on a powerful ascent right to the top of the Tower In The Clouds, after which is a perfect time to have a nice evening walk on the streets of an old festival city (where you hear Matsurinoban is being played from a some small store radio).
MAZARINE KLIFFS (DEEP MIXES)
Tracklist (in this order): Top Speed (cloudy mix) / Empty Force (windy mix) / Old Method (canyon mix) / Tower In The Clouds (original mix) / Top Speed (cave mix) / Old Method (valley mix) / Empty Force (misty mix) [Total runtime is about 55 minutes]
Information: Introducing a long awaited Mazarine Kliffs-Deep Mixes www-album by Konnoo. Originally recorded several years ago, this masterpiece was recently remastered specially for mp3, as usual taking in attention a very good "technical quality" attainable with mp3 format. This project exists in two parts, the current release is also known as "Japanese mixes". Among an original audio also original cover graphic have been used. Obviously, Konnoo incorporates a fresh semi-experimental atmosphere into every piece, while managing to keep his fans happy with a traditional "hi-tech" synth-pop arrangements. A second part of the project is planned for the release later next year and will consist from a new re-recorded versions of songs and a new cover art. Konnoo has not provided more details about the second part, apparently it will include some additional yet unreleased tracks. Generally speaking, current release is an instant Konnoo type of "hi-nrg/electro/industrial/metal disco-punk/synth pop fun" (no imitations there, these names are just abstract explanation of what you can expect from the album). Once again Konnoo breaks through and produces an unique and powerful music.
BEST OF KONNOO VOLUME 2
Tracklist (in this order): Exit / Endless Journey / Lantern Festival / Live Cycles / The Konnection / Fantasy Factory / Distant Edge / Quest Of An Empty Mind / Free Flight [Total runtime is about 60 minutes]
Information: Packed with eccentric compositions in "progressive-disco-rock style", the electro-synth album by Konnoo, Volume 2 can be viewed as a natural "second party" of the whole Best of Konnoo project. The album's tracks take on a melodic and spontaneous "mid-to-fast tempo" electronica territory with a more "relaxed" but as powerful songs as these found on Volume 1. Additionally, it contains an original version of Lantern Festival, which served as a prototype for the track Two Opposites (from Mountain Path album). The overall sound of this album is a very versatile, so wether you like an electronic music or you prefer a more conventional or dance music, this is your opportunity to enjoy something special!
MOUNTAIN PATH

Information: Konnoo Records presents an "electro-disco-house gem", a very "danceable to" album from Konnoo. In true Konnoo tradition, he came out of studio with a highly melodic and structurized album. Originally, the album was produced during about one year, now all songs where remastered specially for this release. Sounds and techniques used by Konnoo add an "experimental" touch to a fundamental character of the release. As always, what you get when you purchase our music are highest quality stereo mp3 files (in 320kbps format), ready to be played on your mp3 player or computer. The track called Landscape is not available for individual purchase, because it will be released later as a single. However, this beautiful "sympho-disco-ambient" song is included when you purchase the full album.

Information: Initial release on Konnoo Records, this album represents a collection of carefully selected compositions from the period of time before creation of a groundbreaking album Mountain Path. The album was completely remastered from original sound files, the song Time Traveller was remastered from original analog tape. The album's songs are basically same as on discontinued CD released earlier, but this new release has a clean "heavy synth" Konnoo sound as opposed to a "softer" sound of CD. Even if you have a rare CD release, we highly recommend to get this new release.

This is a very rare "collector's item". (Currently discontinued, this album now re-released on Konnoo Records) The album represents a carefully selected collection of compositions from the period before creation of groundbreaking Mountain Path album. Volume One is an excellent example of "all-around dance-like" works by Konnoo and therefore more accessible for listeners with any musical preferences.
