LIMITED NETWORK

Max Watts' Detroit-based and Submerge-endorsed Limited Network label  presents a four-track electro compilation entitled "Network Not Found". On the A1, label-head Watts provides an electro-funk workout reminiscent of early Kraftwerk. Modulating basslines, delayed breakbeats, and haunting synths call back to early tropes of the sound while contributing to and reinventing the style. LA's 5tr8tch debuts his future classic, "Sleight of Hand". This track delivers tight 808 programming and unique sound design that takes the listener on a timeless journey. The B1 features The Advent and Zein in classic Kombination Research fashion - advanced B-side biznoinks for true lovers of the movement. Pulling from the Teknotika archives, GiGi Galaxy provides a rare DAT recording from 1997. The track's growling bassline, warm 808 beats, and experimental sound design take the listener on an ever-changing journey that musta sounded terrifyingly fresh in the year it dropped.

Wall Shake / All In One

Detroit techno fetishist and Mad Mike protegy Max Watts presents two new cuts from his ADAT archive. On the A-side, "Wall Shaker" is a timeless and anthemic track built to rock dancefloors. True Midwest grit, original sound design, and
a thumping mixdown drive this track. Play it nice and loud and it's guaranteed to shake the walls. On the B-side, "All In One" provides a 9-minute journey of chords, rhythms, and deep sub frequencies that is unmistakably Detroit!

Pressed at 45rpm, these cuts are crafted carefully to compete on any system. Big T I P for techno heads... 

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Detroit techno's batton is handed down from Mad Mike to Max Watts who's insistence on keeping the OG spirit of the scene alive has enlisted a whole new generation of techno heads. If you live for those 1st and 2nd wave Motor City sounds, this is your place.

TRACK LISTING

A1. Wall Shaker
B1. All In One

LN000 presents three electro tools rooted in the essence of the D. “Black Elements”, the title track, is a hypnotic journey crafted for DJ and cruising use. The looping pads and percussive bassline entrance the listener as the bed of 808 beats keep the dancefloor busy. On the B-side, “KAH” offers an exploration in the realm of electro funk. Neck snapping snares, thunderous kicks, a tweaked out bassline, and heavy breakdowns can be found in this track; this one is for the dancers. “2 Motor” closes out the EP with an energetic electro excursion. Tight beats, an anthemic lead, crashing cymbals, a dope bassline, and some funky sound design drive this track.


STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Having Mad Mike as a mentor is every techno producer and label owner's dream. Max Watts doesn't squander the chance as he continues to paint a deliciously real and gritty picture of Detroit techno in 2025.
