by the age of 15, david rodigan was djing at school dances and youth clubs. the infectious, crazy back beat of jamaican ska first captivated him as a teenager in the mid 60 s, it was a driving, energetic sound which he found impossible to resist. when the pace cooled down and condensed into rock steady david was equally enamoured because the sweet, aching vocal style of jamaica s young stars could be heard to full effect.

this series reflects brilliantly on his dedication to digging for those untouched and unrivalled samples and breaks as you hear mr. thing use in his dj sets. as a dj, mr thing never fails to engage the crowd with his winning combination of hip hop and funk breaks, spiced up with his legendary mixing and scratching skills.

when we first started thinking about the compilation, we had in mind the idea to put together a great minimal techno selection with stuff from the early 90s, which really inspired us, like robert hood, dan bell, plastikman, pansonic and mike ink to name a few. whilst working on the project we had the feeling that there is so much more great and influential minimal music from way before the techno thing started. so we were very excited to combine the music from the electronic pioneers, with the tracks from the minimal techno godfathers in a very modern way. in minimal music there is so much (space) in between the sounds and the space that gives you a lot of opportunities for an own interpretation. the grandfather paradox is a scientific theory about time travelling and was first described by the science fiction writer rene barjavel in his book - le voyageur imprudent. we took suggestions out of that because we felt like we are travelling back in time and manipulating the old music with modern knowledge. the fact that we did all this with the deserved respect to the originals makes us quite sure that the results are bringing something new and interesting to the old tracks and transport the past into the here and now. - henrik schwarz, ?e & dixon

it s been a while since al kent the scottish disco guy released anything on his own label. but since he s celebrating 20 years of million dollar disco in 2019 this seems like the perfect time to rectify that. following on the heels of a string of successes for labels like gamm, razor n tape, cree and bbe, this sublime piece of disco soul has been road tested all over europe and beyond, with each play getting the same massively positive reaction and a queue of punters dying to know what the hell they ve just danced to! so it s probably a good idea to make this available on a super limited one sided pressing so even more people can dance to it

so, who is this mysterious afefe iku? after absolutely destroying the dancefloors all year long with his infamous bootleg of radioheads >everything in its right place<, which he smartly put out in extremely limited amounts of vinyl around the same time his mentor, osunlade, featured his cover of that very same song on bbes >exit music: songs with radio heads<. in all honesty afefe remains a mystery even to us. so, let us start by saying who afefe isnt. unfortunately, for those who thought he was osunlade, you are mistaken, but dont feel ashamed, because afefe creates at osunlades studio in santorini, which makes sense to pinpoint him as osunlade.
