Who are you ? 
I'm Tushen Raï, co-curator of Hard Fist records and happy to finally contribute with my own edit to RePhrase Collection 

How did you discover this track ?
I dig it at Unite Central, a fantastic record shop in the center of Lyon, runned by Mush and Guillaume Des Bois. I think this one come from the personal collection of Guillaume. 

Why do you choose to edit it ?
I'm a big fan of D.A.F, the band of Robert Görl and Gabi Delgado-Lopez (RIP genius) but I only recently started digging the solo records of Robert, the drummer. There are a lot of fantastic tracks, some EBM of course, but also some more hardcore techno which are really great and surprising. This track, Repeat The Beat was released in 1991 (def proto early european electronic music) and talks about AIDS, the role of the dance floor in the LBTIQ+ community at this period, etc ... At the same time, you find the violence of the situation and some hope & determination in the community. I really love this track!  

What are your upcoming plans ?
I've got my new EP coming out on Cracki Records really soon, some music on the way with Cornelius Doctor and many projects for Hard Fist! Keeping busy, trying to stay singular.

Creative offspring of the musical fantasies of @Tushen_Rai and @CorneliusDoctor, Hard Fist brings together a passionate, supportive and activist party scene. Celebrating a globalized - but far from rootless - dancefloor where Turkish psychedelia, Lithuanian cold wave, Central African percussion and Indonesian polyphonic chants blend, Hard Fist crosses time and borders with a singular attachment to the folk music of trance, the kind that marks spiritual gatherings and festive rituals. Shaping the technological meeting of man and machine, the Hard Fist sound brings the experience as much on the dancefloor as in the calm of a Bedouin tent, always off the beaten track, with a free heart and clenched fists.

The label has been releasing collective records with artists such as Bawrut, Balam, A-Tweed, Omri Smadar, Matias Aguayo, Fantastic Twins, Philou Louzolo, Deena Abdelwahed, Curses, Dengue Dengue Dengue, Martin Noise, J.A.K.A.M., Omar Joesoef, MR TC, Pletnev, Anastasia Zems, John Parsey, Errortica, The Juan MacLean, Khidja, Roe Deers, Cosmo Vitelli, Ground, Sascha Funke, Fargo Devianti & Vongold, Daniel Monaco, Fringe Society, Elfenberg, Timothy Clerkin, A-Tweed, Ko Shin Moon, Lokier, Pletnev, nICo, Strapontin, Simple Symmetry, Que Sakamoto, Kubebe, Jonathan Kusum, Kaan Duzarat, Los Ninos Del Parque, Feller, Mekine U Teksi, Bab, Linja, Lion's Drum, Mishell, Ayma, Kincaid, Balam, Juan To Tree, Mytron & Ofofo, Niv Ast, Damon Jee, Thomass Jackson, Rina, Fabio Me Llaman Soltero, Hipless, N.O.Y, Oded Gafni, Radial Gaze, Fabio Fabio, Omar Joesoef, Da Iguana, Neskeh, Warum and all artists that collaborated to our edit series Re-Phrase Collection...
