YES, YES, YES!! 1995 release, available again!! Out of the depths of Detroit's Matrix label comes the most important release in the mid 90's as far as techno is concerned and the most in need of a revamp, the obscure cult classic i rate in the highest pedigree of deep techno, stands side by side with the Basic Channel cosmos. I would have to say this will be a cult favorite for any self respecting techno dj. One of the quintessential dub related releases of all time! I know that is a bold statement, seeing as how there is so many mixed opinions out there but i stand by my words. I think some may not understand the beauty of this recording and all it's hidden depth, the remixes really steal my heart, to say the least. The deepchord mix comes correct with its echo-heavy atmospheric density which was was layed out and pioneered by the hands of the mysterious Detroit/Berlin axis of minimal techno, but done with such perfection on this mix. And the Echospace mix i would mostly associate with the producer known as Maurizio, as it seems to really capture the essence and feeling of those early recordings. It really captures that same feeling in a very original way, slowly developing lo-fi dub processing and abstract rasta chords with an emphasis on processed noise & hiss. Extremely gorgeous & some of the finest and most invigorating listening out there, period. essential in every sense of the word!
