Diagonal celebrates 13 years in business via a 4 x 12″ run featuring label stalwarts and influential collaborators. This is LP3, the third in the series. Like LP 1, 2 & 3 before it, this 12″ comes with a coloured, elastic H band. All four LPs will be accompanied by these meaning customers can combine the records and complete their own 4 x 12″ set!
LP 4, the final instalment of the ’13’ project, features a special amalgamation of several Russell Haswell cuts by UK techno grandee, James Ruskin. The result brings to mind prime Underground Resistance! There’s more classic electro representation from L/F/D/M (who has previously appeared on the label via his Bronze Teeth and Green Gums aliases).
Dale Cornish, long-time Diagonal ally and occasional Powell collaborator, joins in the celebrations via “Back In The Room”, a pounding club track inspired by the early Diagonal parties of yesteryear. EVOL chime in with “Wabbit Trax 7”, the latest in their acid study series. Finally, there’s a swift and satisfying gear change from Not Waving. His “Rolling in Thoughts” offers a serene, ethereal safe haven.
