New from the Mirrorcube

Here's a little something that we've been working on in Mirrorcube studio. After a lot of back and forth with making tracks this is our first we've truly collaborated on at the same time. MEMORY MODEL 7 (Beta) [UNRELEASED] by Mirrorcube

Coco Sumner

Many will try to argue but the truth is that it's not where you're from but where you're at. Bearing that in mind it makes no difference that the diminutive, pensive beauty sitting in front of me is the daughter of one of the more famous musicians from the late 70's and 80's, because she is here on her own merits rather than any sort of fame by association. Coco Sumner has been notching up increasing amounts of attention lately, but after chatting to the affable young lady barely out of her teens I begin to wonder if much of the press coverage is for the wrong reasons. For the truth is that the majority of what I have read about her needles at the fact that her father is Sting, he of the long winded sexual rattle and former singer with the Police. While this is undeniably true, these same articles have sought to denounce the budding musician for her parentage. A good deal of similar sounding vitriol may be more accurately levelled at the offspring of other ageing stars, but there are two things that save Coco from the same unfair categorisation.

The Greatest Dub Techno Mix in the World... Ever!

That little pile of sweetness over there counts as some of the most prized records in my collection. Any serious techno head will have their own little love story to tell about how and when they found out about Maurizio, Basic Channel, Chain Reaction and Rhythm & Sound. After posting this pic I took for an old article I wrote profiling the music, I was asked if I'd ever done a mix of all of those records. I hadn't and immediately set about plotting one out.
I made a few rules for myself in doing the mix: it would only be music made or remixed by Mark Ernestus and Moritz von Oswald together. That meant none of their recent solo work or co-produced tracks with others. I also left out the majority of the early Basic Channel records as they weren't really dub techno, although I did sneak in Q1.1. Some others I left out because with the mix running at 2 1/4 hours already I was conscious of how much more space I would need to host it, and my ability to keep putting the records together was waning. Anyway, here it is, 30 tracks of the greatest dub techno in the world... ever! The Greatest Dub Techno mix in the World... Ever! by mirrorcube
