While we enjoyed Sandwell District’s entire posthumous showcase at the Bunker last week, one of our favorite moments came early in the night, when Rrose set things off with some serious heart of darkness vibes. We’re talking really murky yet transcendent techno, as if the partially masked producer was our guide on a foggy tunnel of terror trip.
The mix below–taken from the Italian site Electronique–should give you a good idea of what we’re talking about. Check out the complete tracklisting below…
