loose records is proud to introduce retrospective - a celebration of our first thirty releases by europe s top, underground techno artists. coming from a broad berth of influence, retrospective represents the past, present, and future of european techno. our djs take electronic music to a new level with orchestral experimentation and their fusion of cross-genre. retrospective vol. 1 features tracks by junction hands (the collaboration of rino cerrone and markantonio), nhb, minicoolboyz and tom hades.

retrospective vol. 2 features tracks by luigi madonna, raul mezcolanza, khat, and jake childs.

due to popular demand, here we have the second vinyl sampler for mr. gs retrospective album – this time featuring two old gems from his own phoenix g label and one from the elusive the reaver moniker.

serving as a little taster of the full double-cd retrospective album, this sampler features 3 exquisite mr. g tracks cherry-picked by the man himself. check gs out dub - tip!!

a quick listen to the radio suggests that disco is back, not that it ever went away here at retrospective and over the past few months we have been proud to work with some of the biggest names on the scene including heion, hardway bros and ajello. still there is certainly something in the air and so what better time to welcome back to the labels spanish king of the re-edits, rayko, with a stunning new 4 track ep.

emotional rescue is proud to reissue one of germanys best - if most underrated - collectives dunkelziffer. formed of dominik von senger, reiner linke and helmut zerlett, the floating line up also included contributions from cans damo suzuki and jaki liebetzeit, as well as the unknown cases stefan kratchen and reebop kwaku baah. this true supergroup, over a 6 year period, made 4 ground breaking albums that covered the classic krautrock blend of heavy, repetitive drumming, intricate, overlapping melody and sonic intonation, but expanded it to include heavy dub, soul and jazz elements. this special retrospection obi set is being issued as part of record store day and features the three 12 inches that will later be released individually.

nice price deal !!! hot on the heals of the retro010 – ajello which is continuing to get hype comes an e.p. from an artist we have been following for quite a while…heion! if you havent heard of the young talented romanian, which is pretty impossible, regarding his output over the past few months, you now have the chance to catch his vibe.
