CPU celebrate 50th release with rebuilds of 2 rare bleep techno tracks from 1990.

Originally released on white label, ‘Move’ was written by Dean Marriott (aka D.Ramirez) and Lloyd Douglass and recorded in Sheffield in 1990. Only a small run were pressed which is reflected today by their high price on discogs.

These rare white labels by Detromental became legendary in the Sheffield techno scene as CPU label boss Chris Smith recalls: “they sounded like they should have been on Warp”, comparing them to the likes of Forgemasters, LFO and Nightmares on Wax.

Last year Chris noticed the track ‘Rewind’ had been posted on a techno group on Facebook and Sheffield DJ Richard Hardcastle tagged Dean in the comments, knowing he was the original artist.

Chris contacted Dean to ask if the master tapes still existed, unfortunately they were lost so Chris asked for permission to rebuild the tracks. Dean was sceptical at first as techno cover versions rarely work, but Chris’s keen eye for detail saw faithful reproductions using many of the synthesizers used to make the originals. 

This project is a labour of love for Chris as these tracks were among his favourites from the era. Huge respect to Dean & Lloyd for writing them and graciously allowing this project to happen some 27 years after they were originally made. 

As with all tracks in the ‘Yorkshire Bleep & Bass’ genre; watch yer bass bins - I’m tellin’ ya!

Limited edition 12" vinyl in shrink-wrapped printed purple sleeve with paper inner. Includes Move (Rebuilt) and Rewind (Rebuilt).

Written by Dean Marriott & Lloyd Douglass
Produced by Chris Smith

Reptant - Lizard Of Oz (Preview)

Artist: Type-303
Title: UglyTruth
Label: Zeitnot
Cat No: ZEIT009
Format: 12” Vinyl, hand-stamped

Tracklist:
A1 The E-Street
A2 Sfääri
B1 UglyTruth
B2 Uprising

Type-303 delivers a 4-track homage to 90's rave and acid on Zeitnot 09.

Upfront and unreservedly ‘The E-Street‘ captures the soul of eccied warehouse club culture with a thunderous, addictive chord melody from the word go. Belly-deep, sweltering bass made for sweaty body masses. 'Sfääri' takes a serene, almost dream house turn, side-chained lo-fi pads and twisting, turning acid bass. 

Flip the plate for more gutteral, darker acid techno - like the head-rattling 'UglyTruth'. Disturbing broken-machine sounding hook looms over bubbling accented acid squelch, while the 303 abuse continues on 'Uprising'; an eerie vocal sample reminiscent of classic Chicago jack tracks, with driving hi-hats and a psychedelic sliding acid line.

Inner Touch is the embodiment of Nicolas Field within the electronic music art form. With a storied history informing their most recent work, Inner Touch is a concise vision of transformation and relinquishment. The music is both simple and deceptively deep, best suited to those seeking moments of transcendence on the dancefloor.

Throughout the last decade, Nicolas has toured extensively around the world, mostly with punk bands, galvanizing a thirst for moving and connecting people through music. Along with dozens of musical collaborations and releases, Field has published Farewell Manly Strength: Masculinity and the Politics of Emotion (Furrawn Press 2018), their take on the contemporary state of masculinity and gender identity. There is a wisdom and thoughtfulness that guide Nicolas' art, a calm and focused resolve that renders a delicate intensity.

100% Gone is the debut EP from Inner Touch. A five track exploration of synthetic textures, pulsing beats and polyrhythm that would happily bop in any night club. Yet these tracks hold the listener effortlessly to a place of fulfilled solitude and with a wonder for the natural world. This juxtaposition of solitude and community, nature and synthesis is what makes Inner Touch so special and a joy to listen to.
