About

Quadrant Dub is one of the most transcendent pieces of music ever recorded. It stands as perhaps the most important dub techno recording of all. — (via Optimistic Underground)

How can a modulated dub chord, fathomless fuzz and a monotone baseline played out for 20 minutes nearly bring you to tears? Listen to these versions of Main Street’s I’m Your Brother and find out.

As ever: mastered and cut at Dubplates & Mastering, pressed at Pallas. Infinitely essential. — (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)
