about

Token preps new compilation, Fuga, featuring Nastia Reigel, Stefan Vincent, Border One, Dold, PTTRN, Ribé, Linkan Ray & Mark Broom.

The eight track release introduces a brace of new and breaking names to the Belgian outlet, and zeroes in with particular clarity on the label’s by now keenly defined aesthetic - classic, uptempo Techno from the purist end of the genre.

As ever with Token releases - the devil remains distinctly in the detail. Each recording, hand-picked and road tested in a club environment - some for over a year, offers up its own unique and nuanced take on contemporary Techno. The label’s penchant for picking up on the Best in Class shines through, with all parties bringing their strongest work to the fore.

Rising Russian star Nastia Reigel continues a rich vein of form on opener, Pray. In equal parts hypnotic & hard-hitting, the versatile work sets the tone for Fuga, which continues with tripping contributions from Border One & Stefan Vincent - the latter of whom turns in a compilation highlight in the form of Fever Dream. Sweden’s Dold makes an appearance with heady work My Homework Ate My Dog, and PTTRN features with stunning, big room recording Contempt / Suggest 6 - a cast-iron reduction that pulses and warps across its run time. Ribé’s offering The Cause showcases a tentatively more drawn in approach, focusing on groove & tone to great effect, before Fuga returns to the high octane intensity of Linkan Ray’s Introspective Vision. Veteran Mark Broom closes proceedings in considerable style with AR-4, a neat and satisfying tool that showcases the very best of the genre - sharp, effective and economical.

Fuga presents a focused and refined showcase of the Token sound in 2020. The compilation highlights the label’s dedication to the classic tenets of the Techno genre, but at the same time draws attention to its role as a conduit for new talent to receive the exposure it deserves without artistic compromise.
