today i've been in the mood for some tough techno and i decided to turn to o/v/r. wise move. if you haven't heard of them before, o/v/r are regis and james ruskin collaborating. they've been dj'ing together on and off for a while, and have recently released their first ep, 'interior', on ruskin's reformed blueprint label. anyway, here are a couple of dj sets i've been enjoying today. great energy and power, and they make sure to include some old school records, which is an easy way to keep me happy.
o/v/r @ motor 10.10.08
o/v/r mix vol. 1
o/v/r mix vol. 2
two vets showing how its done. i keep finding myself going deeper and deeper into techno these days...
Looking forward to hear these tomorrow, their latest ep is just great!
ReplyDelete@chris:"i keep finding myself going deeper and deeper into techno these days... "...good you do so, just giving me lots of inspiration!
Chris Hobson getting 'deeper into techno'?! Well, I never...
ReplyDeletelooking forward to hearing these - Interior is probably my favourite 'full on' techno track of the year so far
ReplyDeleteCheers Chris, downloading these now. I've been impressed by what i've heard of O/V/R so far and Ruskin's new release on Blueprint, the Sabre EP is also a good listen. I'm really enjoying the Sandwell/Blueprint 'proper' techno sound at the moment, keep it coming!
ReplyDeletethanks for the sets,
ReplyDeletealso Regis' collaboration with Antonym is quite nice but less techno-techno, on this 10" :
