Rennie Foster - minimal detroit vol.160

Recorded live at TABA record store, November 2022.

Modern Abuse - In - Store Session 015

Who'd have thought the quiet market town of Hitchin, on the outskirts of London, would be home to a passionate purveyor of riveting techno... That's Rob Kirkaldy, or Fossil Archive and R.M.K as he's known to many. 

Like we said, techno is his bread and butter, having first been inspired by its Detroit roots, but rest assured he's exploring all facets of the genre which brings a distinctive energy to his output. It's the many years he's spent honing his craft that have seen to that, not only through his releases but his DJ and live sets too.

Having shared releases for the likes of NECHTO, Obscure, Fachwerk and ARTS over the years, in 2015 he decided to step into the label world too with his eponymous Fossil Archive imprint, which is powered by the idea of not compromising on his sound. It's been a home for his own productions first and foremost but also welcomes other artists for collaborations and remixes, including the likes of Trevino, Stephen Brown and Kiara Scuro's ZaaZaa.

For his 'Ransom Note' mix she shares the recording of a special live show performed under his R.M.K moniker at De Helling in Utrecht last year. It's techno in its purest form - stripped back, room shaking, thunderous - but full of groove and soul. Let him help you shake off those residual cob webs...

Settle is a Brooklyn DJ and member of the @lockedgroovebk collective. She focuses on percussive techno grooves with hypnotic, sci-fi, and dub elements. This mix was recorded live at @jupiter_disco on a Sunday in April.

Settle and I met though the Brooklyn techno community surrounding Locked Groove. As a stylish yet enigmatic figure in our scene, getting to photograph and style her first shoot was an honor for me. 

I had the pleasure of hearing this mix live at Jupiter and since that recording it's helped me get and stay focused while painting and sewing. I hope you enjoy wherever it takes you.

Grant me you this dance

Mizter Bonezz delivers a chilling rework of Biggie’s darkest confessional. This Schizophrenia Edit dives deep into the raw emotions behind the original track, layering haunting textures, experimental transitions, and psychedelic undertones. It’s a sonic exploration of psychosis, intrusive thoughts, and mental illness — an unsettling yet powerful tribute to those fighting silent battles every day.

⚠️ Listener discretion is advised. This remix is not for the faint of heart.
