detroit isn t just a place. sure, it is a place, and those who physically live there know its triumphs and its tragedies far better than anyone else. but detroit is also a feeling, a sound, a philosophical home for those who connect with the futuristic, dystopian sounds of detroit techno and electro on a deep level. those tendrils of connection reach far and wide, bringing people from all over the world into orbit with the people and sounds of the city, connecting through the snap of a snare, the wiggly groove winding its way through the beat, the beauty in the sound of strings, the anger in a bubbling bassline.

the intensity of neznan his personality and talent made us decide to go all the way for this release. his story is remarkable and feels like a paradox. his musical ability is full of details and his creativity is a perfect match with float. if you take your time to understand his visions and incomprehensible ideas we’re sure you will love this piece of art as much as we do.
way too many words will get spilled if we’re going to describe every single track. the tracks are filled with the tiniest details without them ever sounding complex. his love for the oldskool elements and techniques blends well with his forward thinking approach. above this all we have a splendid jeroen search remix.
two additional tips to enjoy the vinyl release to the fullest.
1: place the vinyl on your deck, press start and watch magic happen when you look into the silver pin.
2: are the locked grooves sounding weird? no, you re wrong. neznan decided he wanted the 45rpm locked grooves on a 33rpm vinyl.
