Evan Baggs
New language EP

Part 2 of the As One series, this time with one of electro's most respected producers, E.R.P. aka Convextion, reinterpreting another 90s classic by the veteran UK producer. "Mihara" and "Shambala" were originally included in the As One's first album "Reflections", released on 1994 on New Electronica. "Destination Other" was featured in his LP "The Art of Prophecy", released on Shield Records in 1997. Our goal with these two As One releases was, not to make another reissue, but to recompile tracks from his discography into something new, also providing the reinterpretation by two legendary artists like Juan Atkins and E.R.P.. We hope you enjoyed the ride.

>>> Ltd. Repress with special sticker coming in 2022 <<<Junki Inoue presents the second release on his recently founded label SAISEI from prolific Japanese producer Takuya Sugimoto under his COLOGNe alias. Deep Talk EP features 6 tracks originally released on Japanese CD only label Viola in 1999 and is a snapshot of the elevated warped-techno meets IDM productions Sugimoto is so respected for. Famous for releasing under many synonyms including COLOGNe, Web and Sammansa it was his EVA EP - the first release on FatCat Records in 1996 that stands out in his recording history. The tracks were in fact licenced from Syzygy Records in Japan, which was one of the main Japanese labels including Viola that homed his work during the 90s era he was most productive in. More recently German label Acido released The Sound There, a mini album of previously unreleased Web material recorded between 1994 and 1995 which was released last year in 2020. Deep Talk EP presents 6 tracks of intelligent and elevated techno, which show the balanced and intricate approach Sugimoto applies to his output. It has all the warmth and positive essence of the 90s era of electronic music - combining deep and beautiful sounds with headsy and intricate constructions. This is the first time this music has been made available on the vinyl format. SAISEI is a Japanese word which translates to ‘reproduction’ and ‘to play’ (as in playing records). Japanese culture is widely known for its traditional nature just as much as it is for being forward into the future and this label’s concept does justice to exactly that. Having started digging for records as early as 16 years old, Inoue delved into productions from 1990s Japan to uncover these native gems. SAISEI’s core concept is to recapture and reintroduce unique pieces of Japanese electronic music onto vinyl, to an audience it never reached before as most of this music was only released in Japan.

REVOLT! strikes back with a new VA and powerful sounds made by Greece’s man of the moment Lee Burton, Moroccan uncompromising producer Adil Hiani and Romania’s uprising talent Sonohat, who join the label for the first time.
