After the wonderful techno Album “The Compilation” on Moto Music 013 three years ago a new Album “Alchemist Dream & Future Tales” is coming out on same swiss label produced by the legend Bigeneric aka Marco Repetto. Those tracks are a bundle of beautiful and well preserved dark High-Tech Techno & Ambient tracks, produced between 1995 and 1999.

Out for the first time on vinyl since it's original release in 1994, “Inspiration” is a house classic that needs no introduction. A blockbuster in the house hall of fame, Arnold Jarvis' iconic vocal sits seamlessly on what would become the signature rough tumble Kerri sound.

Stunning bit of research by Andrea Dallera (Dualismo Sound) and Gabriele Casiraghi who've been meticulously digging Italian bins. After endless sifting through this crucial time in Italian dance floor music, we are presented with their final distillation of this transitory period between 80's afro cosmic and Italo's peak into early 90's rave and Italo house era. In their words: “The whole concept was born as we started to find records that were into a kind of hybrid zone that was clearly pre-announcing some of the huge musical changes brought by the 90’s. The sound at play can be understood as looking closely to Belgian New Beat, Uk's Acid House and German early Techno but still connected with some dynamics of the ‘80s sounds: lashing snares and catchy melodic phrases joined by filthy acid bass lines, highly compressed kicks and 'World music' samples are just some of the most recurring elements.”Hands down mandatory for any dance floor oriented record collection.

After two EPs on Pleasure Club, Johnny Hunter returns to the label with his first full length - Dub Is King LP. Fusing all of the styles he has become renowned for through his releases and DJ sets, this album see’s him incorporate dubby techno, spacey electro and UK garage flavours into one eclectic yet cohesive body of work.Created throughout the trials and tribulations of the last two years, Dub Is King LP is a message of optimism, unity and freedom, and is also a deep homage to Johnny's roots in soundsystem culture.

Susumu Yokota's vision of techno - house, lovingly collected in collaboration with Space Teddy and the Yokota family.
