"Black Moon Rising" was their iconic mission statement, originally released in 1993. Famously recorded on a Tascam 4-track, it's a nonetheless arousing and cosmic adventure into the UR spectrum, somehow lo-fi and hi-tech in equal measure, "Black Moon Rising" and "System Work" are the two chest beating Detroit techno anthems, while "Pathway Through Time" has an ethereal, hovering quality which would make it a firm favourite with Richie Hawtin; whilst "Introducing Scan 7", with all its sci-fi squiggles and niggles, thrusts forward with a squelchy de-tuned analogue bassline and dusted (now vintage) drum boxes.
Like much of the Underground Resistance catalogue, it sounds as urgent and as out there as ever; and should be a proud addition to any techno heads record collection.
STAFF COMMENTS
Matt says: The second essential reissue from the UR catalogue to land this week. The elusive Scan 7 set dancefloors and decks on fire when this first came out in 1993. Bizarrely it's lost none of its urgency and potency now, some thirty years later. No one does it like UR!TRACK LISTING
