As I often play these records alongside newer releases, I realized most of those classics were more than 25 years old, I thought of compiling them together to show where dub tech comes from and how timeless most of these tracks are...Take a record like Round Four, discovered for a lot of people like me on Daniel Bell's mix (2000) The button down mind of Daniel Bell. More than 25 years onwards, you can look at a record like this, alongside Baby Ford and early Ricardo Villalobos as the blueprint for modern minimal and dubby electronic music, but that would imply that those genres later improved upon the overall formula. In reality, few got even close to as good as this. The origins of a genre is often more important than newer releases.  ''If you do not know where you come from, then you don't know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you're going...''  (Terry Pratchett, I Shall Wear Midnight)

Gustavo Gutiérrez to meksykański producent techno, który od 2023 roku koncentruje się na eksperymentowaniu i funkcjonowaniu dźwięku poprzez techno.

Eksploracja poprzez konsumpcję i dystans pozwoliła mu uzyskać informacje niezbędne do nawiązania kontaktu z obiema stronami.

Jego brzmienie angażuje zarówno uporządkowany umysł, jak i ciało, utrzymując narrację wierną istocie techno.

Interakcję pomiędzy elementami można interpretować jako niekonwencjonalne ćwiczenie, dające możliwość podążania odważnymi ścieżkami zarówno w setach na żywo, jak i w produkcji. Podejściu temu może brakować równowagi, ale z każdym procesem zyskuje na przejrzystości.

Gustavo Gutiérrez is a Mexican techno producer who has been focused on the experimentation and functioning of sound through techno since 2023.

Exploration through consumption and detachment has allowed him to obtain the necessary information to connect with both sides.

His sound engages both the structured mind and the body, maintaining a narrative true to the essence of techno.

The interaction between elements can be interpreted as an unconventional exercise, providing opportunities to take bold paths in both live sets and production. This approach may lack balance, but it gains clarity with each process.

Very happy to share the recording of my live set at Stone Techno Festival last summer.  Summer was full of highlights and this show was definitely one of them, with such a great energy and crowd at the stage hosted by Fuse. 

Technology will never be able to recreate a vibe on a dancefloor (I hope), but those who were there that day know it was something very special. 
Really enjoyed this one a lot.

About Tresor Berlin
At midnight, on March 13th 1991, a basement door opened at Leipziger Strasse 126, Berlin. Through this door, many passed, on their way to defining new terrains in electronic music. There they found a dance floor in the vaults of a closed-down department store, with a unique sound bound to dense fog, building night after night a history that was also a vision of the future.

This history has seen in Jeff Mills’ first sets on three turntables, Underground Resistance's first live appearances in Europe, grandiose Tresor Park parties, to various chapters of the Loveparade with Sven Väth in the 90s and since then countless generation-spanning parties. These moments represent the highlights of infinite personal clubbing experiences. It is the manifestation of the Berlin spirit, emerging from its considerable strife. This history is not without its complications - from temporary closure by the authorities and several raids in the early years to closure and demolition of the old location in 2005. What followed was years of wandering in exile and, finally, resurrection in the new home in Kraftwerk Berlin.

These stories, conversations and shared experiences within our walls forge a resilience that drives towards a shared ideal, the Tresor sound: community, resistance, and the world to come. This was observed in the newly re-unified German youth, who danced and celebrated together from the club’s inception, and into the present day through ongoing community work in Detroit.

To those that have danced before, and to those that will dance in the future: the light at the end of the long Tresor tunnel is a signal. A flicker amidst the fog. This is our future. This is our place.

Franco Biglieri returns to Warm Up after his Black Tourmaline EP from 2022. This time he serves us eleven cuts digging deep into profound techno realms. The sonic voyage starts with Reflexión, a slow paced, heavy reverberated exercise ideal for setting the atmosphere in a proper club environment.

Voces means a transition to sci fi territories, more alien, a little bit faster than the previous cut and surrounded by shuffled rhythm elements and textures.Things get busier on Falla Gravitacional, again exploring into outer space, pushing the intensity further, adding distortion to the groove and deepness to the atmospheres, blending the physical and the mental into one entity.

El Títere is a radical twist in style, the main sequence goes crazy from the first bar, reverberation is boosted and the beat is submerged into the abyss. Paralizado explores gummy and elastic textures, increasing the hypnosis and releasing the pressure from the previous cut. Profound and diffused but still aimed at the peak time hours in the dancefloor.

Encarnación Interna follows, keeping the reverb wash as an integral element, adding obsessive sequences and precise percussive work to create a feeling of travelling through a black hole somewhere in space. Espíritu Danzante preserves the same approach, as a logical sequel of its predecessor giving way to an alternative version of El Títere.

El Ojo de la Tormenta keeps the pressure alive, with a relentless asymmetrical sequence as the main motif, twisted and mangled wisely over a complex rhythm programming.

El Presagio is probably the most aggressive slice of the sonic voyage, fast tempo, drilling synth riffs and again lots of reverberations and texture all mashed into a well done arrangement,

Finally, Surface Culture slows down the machinery, providing the perfect construction tool using well crafted dub chords and liquid atmospheres. 

Tracklist:

01. Reflexión
02. Voces
03. Falla gravitacional
04. El títere
05. Paralizado
06. Encarnación interna
07. Espiritu danzante
08. El títere (Original)
09. El ojo de la tormenta
10. El presagio
11. Surface culture
