Dekmantel announce the reissue of some of the most era-defining trans-Atlantic, techno cuts from the early '90s, thanks to cult label Djax-Up-Beats. The Dutch label -- founded by Saskia Slegers, aka Miss Djax -- was responsible for releasing some of underground's most archetypal underground dance music, mixing together Chicago and European artists alike, and acting as the launch pad for some of today's biggest producers. This timeless music is being reissued on vinyl for the very first time. Founded in Eindhoven at the turn of the '90s, Djax-Up-Beats quickly earned an international reputation for being a reputable source of Chicago house, acid techno, and floor-filling, heavy-hitting, straight up, underground 12-inches. This first reissue volume sublimely blends esoteric, ambient sounds, with staunchly fierce, and energetic electronic rhythms. Throughout the eight-tracks you can hear the sounds of sequencers, drum machines, and motor-city basslines. It defined the beginning of an era that never went away. Whether you're a collector, or DJ looking to add to your left-field techno collection, the reissue of Djax-Up-Beats best records is not one to pass up. Features Ismistik, Glenn Underground, Felix Da Housecat, Planet Gong, Terrace, Hexagone, Random XS, and K'Alexi Shelby.
