简介

CABINET ?CLASSICS & UNRELEASED? PLUS8091 Broadcasting timeless, route one techno from the heart of Berlin since 1995, Cabinet records has come to epitomise the rough underground sound of a city like few others. Now, with this excellent compilation package, Plus 8 has seen fit to set this essential contribution to electronic dance music in stone. Indeed, over the last decade the relationship between the labels has come full circle, making the release of this retrospective package all the more timely. Back in the days, the Plus 8 affiliated IntelliNET Distribution pressed and distributed the very first Cabinet releases to the world. 10 years later, Richie Hawtin?s relentless search for the perfect beat still leads him back to the rare Cabinet archive for inspiration, quality and pure expression of the form. When you listen to this distinctive, stripped down sound, forged by label founder Daniel Paul, DJ Zky and DJ Trike among others, it?s clear to see why. Not only do their productions contain explosive energy and a generous helping of phuture funk but there?s also a spontaneous, live vibe captured here. The tracks evolve effortlessly, with each new idea reaching its logical conclusion through a mesh of 909 beats, warm analogue basslines and feverish hi hat patterns ? a knack that?s all too conspicuous by its absence nowadays. The package appears in two 12? double pack formats, the first focusing on the early years with classics from Compass and Cab drivers like the acid-tinged Gliding and the infectious shuffle and bass groove of Elwico. The second contains a selection of unreleased gems like Horseshoe?s freakin? 303 inspired Bassline and the tribal drift of Cab driver?s Selbstausloeser. The second vinyl release will be accompanied by a comprehensive double CD that delves further into the Cabinet back catalogue, creating an irresistible 21 track salute to Berlin techno - simply speaking, it?s a must for the purist. To the uninitiated, it?s the chance to finally pin down some of those anonymous moments that so often wash over the dance floor, familiar yet always out of reach ? when the warmth of the human spirit melts the cold shell of technology and momentarily makes perfect sense of everything past, present and future.
