When hearing this material today and realizing it was originally released in '96, one can't fail to acknowledge the timelessness of these sounds – clearly illustrating how ahead of their time these productions were. Ranging from 130 to 145 BPM this EP presents a solid study in synthetic rhythm and percussion layers masterfully juxtaposed with unidentifiable electronic noises and nuances. A trademark sound signature of their own. Unmistakeable Spiral Tribe from a special era in party culture brought back when we need it the most – forward the revolution. More

First-time reissue of this valuable Bunker document. After the success of the label's first seven Unit Moebius releases, number fourteen see Duivenvoorden & co tap into the same bowl of acid that made the earlier releases so infectious. Eight gnarly acid tracks that still stand as some of the most dark yet quirky techno around. More

After more than 15 years back on vinyl, perhaps Unit Moebius' darkest stuff ever made! The Kuiken album project originally was released on the experimental hardcore label Crossfade entertainment in 1994.

The sequel to part I, just as insane and sinister! After more than 15 years back on vinyl, perhaps Unit Moebius' darkest stuff ever made!

The long overdue last vinyl part of the Unit Moebius Golden years album! Including the classic aquatic techno track Dolfinarium (which goes for top prices on ebay and discogs), and the emotive Ecology and Duplovision tracks and the acidic Monoman track. Groundbreaking in 1992 and still fresh almost 20 years later! This is among the best techno ever released in the lowlands and a true classic that inspired many!

This EP distinguishes itself especially for its step towards a slightly slower more atmospheric sound than the conventional Network 23 material. Simon aka Crystal Distortion, the artist responsible for the 3 tracks on this release exhibits a new pallet of sonic references which in relation to earlier material give a sense of maturation to the scene's zeitgeist. A1 almost sounds like it was pressed at the wrong speed with a slight laziness to its beat allowing it a remarkable feeling of holographic spatiality. A2 comes in at a more expected Spiral Tribe tempo, but with a more refined modality, employing sounds very reminiscent of Detroit Techno around that time. B side also merges into more digestible aesthetic in comparison to earlier material, deep sea dubby sounds juxtaposed with crunchy snares and hi hat ricochets. Another piece of the freetekno history puzzle brought back to record stores at affordable prices. Remastered at Manmade mastering in Berlin. More

he last step in the Spiral Tribe trilogy from the R-Zac output (aka a collaboration between Sebastian Vaughan and Simon Carter) featuring three tracks in the pioneering style of early Spiral Tribe from 1994, clearly establishing the inspirational groundwork for dancefloor genres and mind sets to come. Driving layers of bass, transients and dubbed out melodic loops transforming into percussive elements and vice versa throughout extended excursions in fast paced machine powered exercises. Viciously remastered for maximum effect on large sound systems. More

Back in the washing machine for another high intensity Tekno wash cycle of gorgeous percussive mayhem with one more carefully selected EP from the vast Spiral Tribe repertoire. This time “Stormcore 2” from Crystal Distortion aka Simon Carter takes us on a high speed stroll with 4 tracks set at a solid 180bpm all throughout. Another masterful expose of early hardcore/tekno production techniques with endless layering and intertwining of percussive elements skillfully unfolding throughout long build ups of raw rhythmic intercourse. Aesthetically pioneering to say the least. Meticulously remastered down the street from Sound Metaphors at Manmade mastering. More

Repress!

Jump starting a new sublabel non-profit project from Sound Metaphors dedicated to re-issuing Network 23/Spiral Tribe material from the 90's free party scene with this collection of 3 psychedelic excursions by R-Zac the collaborative name for 69dB and Crystal Distortion joining forces in the studio. Starting off with a percussive lo-fi tripped out excursion at 121BPM on the A-side. Flipping over and shifting gears to the 160BPM plateau with an atmospheric hihat tornado of flangers and tribal nuances throughout two more studies on the B-side. More

Part two of the R-ZAC trilogy by Sebastian Vaughn and Simon Carter, originally released in 1996, faithfully re-issued in its original format, remastered.

Spiral Tribe founding members Sebastian Vaughn and Simon Carter empty their pockets yet again in the second step of this R-ZAC trilogy from the pioneering original Spiral Tribe times.

A side coming on strong at a good solid 180 BPM, with almost 10 minutes of a tripped out excursion in metallic transient melodies over spiraling bass lines and drastic changes of tempo throughout. Moving on to another charging wall of bass and kick on the B side generously setting the groundwork for vocal sample playfulness to unfold. Last but not least, last track on this iconic powerful layering of rhythmic patterns that move throughout a 160 BPM grid in motions reminiscent of celestial bodies orbiting each other in parabolic trajectories. Originally released in 96 and brought back to the needles of your record players in remastered vinyl format. More

Canada's Solar Phenomena presents three DJ Sotofett remixes of Tokyo producer Mystica Tribe. With a unique and unpredictable approach, Norwegian DJ Sotofett who runs Sex Tags Mania, Amfibia and Wania opens the remix EP with "Ash of Dub Mix", and as the names suggests, a fat dub with huge rubbery kicks, oodles of echoing hits and a spaced out curiousness that sonically draws inwards. "Dub Lawn Dub" eight minutes strips it back with a meandering top line, whimsical, dreamy and encouraging synths contrasting the rickety drums tumbling below. Lastly, "Dub'right Mix" continues the producer trademark loose limbed and jumbled drums, working into a lather while synths squelches and wobbled pads parallely prospects other dimensions. Heavy deepness with percussive highlights. More

Hooversound hits the ground running with its first 2022 release, this time introducing UK artist RAVETRX to the table with a heavyweight EP that’s been doing the rounds on NTS, BBC Radio 6, and Rinse FM. If the first track is a raver’s drive into the sunset, cruising through ecstatic trance vocals and euphoric jungle breaks, the rest of the A-side plants the listener right at the heart of the warehouse, where kick drums land chest first and hi-octane acid stabs fill the air. The B-side takes us deeper with eyes-down, knees-up techno slammers, with previous label collaborator Mani Festo making an appearance on ‘Feels Good Inside.’ Wrapping things up, ‘Tribe Sequence Calling’ shakes off the tension with distorted guitar riffs and a slouchy 4/4 beat.

Rekids have teamed up with Detroit’s Fit Distribution and enlisted the services of motor city locals Marcellus Pittman and Urban Tribe to put the 313 sound on ‘Working’ and ‘Taxi Talk’. On the former, Marcellus Pittman lays down his trademark blend of mechanical yet jerky old-skool drum machine rhythms and disorientingly dissonant, tripped-out synth chords – creating a somewhat eerie atmosphere that evokes images of Detroit’s manufacturing plants of yesteryear. On the flipside, Urban Tribe transform ‘Taxi Talk’ into a big room monster, using rumbling synth bass, electronic bleeps and laser gun snares to transport us back in time to a dark and hazy 90s warehouse rave.
