Release Note ......::
Adam Beyer's Drumcode juggernaut attracts more fans and critical plaudits with
each passing year. Holding firm on its future facing ethos, techno's number one
label presents a new volume in its acclaimed A-Sides series with 20 prime
tracks to signify its 20th anniversary.
Such is the volume of quality music Adam Beyer receives throughout the course
of the year, releasing all of it would be impossible. Enter the blue chip
A-Sides series: a chance for the quality-obsessive label head to issue a
collection of outstanding tracks that couldn't fit in their regular EP release
schedule.
With an eye on future talent, as much as the label's established roster of
heavy-hitters, the compilation showcases the full breadth of Drumcode's
multifaceted techno sound, equal parts inspiring and functional.
Led by the stealth techno funk of 'Nine of You', Beyer's deft collaboration
with Mark Reeve, the compilation takes in exciting highlights from big guns
such as Alan Fitzpatrick, Dustin Zahn, Bart Skils, Pleasurekraft, Luca Agnelli,
Jay Lumen, Kaiserdisco and Gary Beck.
The rich vein of form displayed by emerging techno talent is similarly given
prime position. Rising DJ/producer Boxia makes his Drumcode debut, fresh from a
well-received warm up set for the crew at the hugely successful Junction 2
festival in London, while the likes of Enrico Sangiuliano, Juan Sanchez, Ian
O'Donovan and Timmo also drop fire, establishing their credentials as some of
the most promising talent breaking through the ranks in 2016.
Reinforcing the global scope of the label, artists such as The Junkies from
Toronto and Layton Giordani from New York, prove techno is winning a place in
the heart of the new generation of artists coming out of North America.
