From the Knekelhuis press release:

"In a world where everything is relative, this may well be the final nail in the truth's coffin. From the past to the present and the present to the past, of stories forgotten and to be told. Murray, labelboss from the great Contort Yourself label, created a library full of edited (un)forgotten cassette material from the first part of the 80's. This compilation features Die Form, Fan Tan, Nocturnal Emissions, AGeM, Beats Per Minute and Parazite: tracks to take you back to the future on the modern day dancefloor."

Massive respect and thanks to all the amazing blogs out there who continually make previously obscure, beautiful music publicly available. Without them... <3

Swiss contemporary club culture magazine zweikommasieben set up an AV-installation called 'Surreal Sleep' at the Weekender in Zürich, 
The idea behind 'Surreal Sleep’ -which was open for visitors at Zürich’s Botanical garden - was to provide a stimulating listening experience for a lapse of 7 hours, and putting the listener into a state between being awake and asleep. For that reason, a constant stream of soft ambient/drone music, with emphasis on melodic sustained sounds, was be played. 

Other artists involved included Mumdance, Robert Turman, Pan Daijing, Jose Luiz Baez and P. Noir.
