Trevor Jackson – Format [FV113.16]
Trevor Jackson releases a collected triple LP edition via The Vinyl Factory featuring 13 tracks including an exclusive bonus cut not available on any of the initial releases. Curated from an archive of over 150 tracks Trevor had built up over the past 2 decades, the inspiration for Jackson’s music, has come from “the times and places where genres weren’t quite formed.” While his synth and beatbox workouts might touch on proto-house, on new wave, on Italo and techno, on ambient and psychedelia, they are at the same time none of these things. Musically, Format explores Jackson’s usual obsessions – industrial, new wave, EBM, electro, post-punk disco and techno, in particular – with great gusto.
Norse – Sagas Of Subterranean Life [SN1210]

Showcasing a versatile collection of 5 bits that range from moving distorted house jams to synth blops and violating techno, ”Norse” is not just a collaboration between soul notes head honcho ”Kastil” and Rotterdam based ”Gitchell Moore”, it’s also a project that tends to avoid genre-restrictions and box thinking.
