RAW TECHNO 001 (feat. Pfirter, Nørbak, Oliver Rosemann):
For the inaugural RAW TECHNO release [RAWT001], we see a strong selection of tracks from Pfirter, Nørbak, and Oliver Rosemann. Marla Singer and Mehen also feature with their 'Covenant' and 'Skin Confessions (Straight Binary Mix)' tracks, respectively. This combination of tracks offers a groovy, deeply hypnotic experience that is best enjoyed in a dark room with considerable depth of sound. Enjoy! 

RAW TECHNO:
RAW TECHNO is a monthly series by George van Dyk, a.k.a. Dyko, in collaboration with his Unknown Collective brand, aimed at showcasing avant-garde techno music in the raw, hypnotic techno sub-genres. The RAW TECHNO series is less diverse in terms of artist/track selection and typically only features 3-5 artists in each release. This is an attempt at enhancing exposure for artists and their music, thereby providing audiences, as well as other DJs and producers, exciting new techno experiences for their own enjoyment or track selections, respectively. Of course, each release comes with a full tracklist including catalogue references, thus simplifying the supporting process. If you like it, buy it!

There is an idea of techno,
some kind of abstraction.
