About
Eternal, unmatched, still futuristic sounding techno textures. — (via Hardwax)
One of the greatest techno 12”s of all time is back in circulation - an utterly crucial building block of dub techno, serving two of the deepest, hypnotic club cuts ever put to wax. Basic Channel’s landmark ’Octagon / Octaedre’ session was first issued in 1994 and formed a crucial, entrancing treatise on lessons learned from Detroit techno and the principles of Jamaican dub. — (via Boomkat)
About Basic Channel : Basic Channel has become synonymous with a brand of stripped-down, ultra-minimal techno almost devoid of musical substance or intent. Both artist and label, Basic Channel was established by Berlin-based producers Moritz Von Oswald (aka Maurizio) and Mark Ernestus in 1993, and the pair have unhurriedly developed a slim but adored catalog of releases under such names as Cyrus, Phylyps, q1.1, Quadrant, Octagon, and Radiance - working a single-minded concept of nearly featureless machine music ("nearly," of course, being the key to the music's success). Like many German techno artists and labels (Tresor, Studio 1, Mike Ink), Basic Channel harbors a reverence for early Chicago acid and house and first-wave Detroit techno, the latter of which in particular is manifested in Mark and Moritz's ultraconservatism with respect to rhythm and composition. — (via Sean Cooper, Rovi)
