For quite some time now, the echospace [detroit] label has been releasing newly remastered digital versions of archival material through various outlets and stores, but the label’s own online presence solely consisted of a placeholder website and a Facebook page. Followers of the label have been hoping for echospace [detroit] to go fully digital online for some time. That time has finally arrived.

At 12:00 AM on Monday 16th September, echospace [detroit] launched their official new Bandcamp site. The launch coincides with the imminent release of a slew of new albums on CD and LP together with new vinyl editions of prior releases previously unavailable on the format.

Among the releases both old and new that have been added to the site so far there are a few surprises including the pre-order of a new 2xCD edition of the originally 4xLP only Altering Illusions compilation album, which is set to include a second disc of previously unavailable material, and a new full length live recording from cv313 entitled Live @ Primary that includes an exclusive download of three tracks that will not appear on the CD edition itself.

With more releases to follow, including digital and CD editions of the recently remastered Deepchord archival series and the new albums from Brock van Wey and cv313, these are exciting times for echospace [detroit] and dub techno lovers alike.

A product of good old eighties Britain, screwed up by school, shat out by university and infuriated by anything corporate, I have never studied music, played an instrument beyond learning and then quickly forgetting the piano, rarely go to gigs and hold no particular interest in music hardware. It probably shows. But ever since my first exposure to late eighties popular music, a very simple and straightforward passion has remained a pure constant: that there is nothing more sublime in this life than simply sitting and listening… to music in particular. It was the late and dearly beloved BBC Radio 1 DJ John Peel who irrevocably changed my life for the better, savagely demolishing the walls obscuring the wondrous and rapidly evolving proliferation of music that was really out there. Since then this music has constantly and inescapably shaped my life. My early attempts to persuade friends and family that this was what truly inventive, inspired music could sound like largely fell on deaf ears, and I quickly tired of the imitation bleep noises and amusing quips about the record or CD player being broken. Since then I have written for igloomag.com in an attempt to persuade you, the readers, not to make my early, blinkered mistakes, but instead to brave the waters of the ever deepening oceans of musical possibilities that exist out there. You wouldn’t want your life to be boring or humdrum, so why should the music you listen to be?
