Len Faki continues to expand the Hardspace series with a new release of personal edits crafted for use in his own DJ sets. This latest addition shows Faki's meticulous approach to reworking tracks that have shaped his sets, blending classic vibes with his signature style. On the A-side, Faki revisits Dubspeeka's "Mod 3" and "Mod 4," released in 2017. The Hardspace reworks pick up on the brooding atmosphere of the original productions and build upon the dark, cinematic vibes. Faki also considerably tweaks the energy level on both tracks, ramping up not only in speed but also adding his trademark percussive pummeling to tailor these tools for peak-time play. Flipping to the B-side, he turns his attention to Fanon Flowers' "Chicago-Detroit Part 1" and "Part 3." These cuts first appeared on Studio Sound in 2010, as part of a series that paid homage to the pioneering sounds of Chicago house and Detroit techno. Both cuts exhibit extremely raw machinist grooves with a sparse analogue jam charm. Embedding the originals' gritty textures and melodic nuances into his edits, Faki highlights their jacking qualities and infuses both tracks with a renewed sense of urgency, creating tension and release as you would expect from one of his sets.
