Rectangle Astral 02 review

After “Todesblei Salonfähig gemacht” and “Retours d’Acide”, here comes the third volume in TuT/RuR’s tribute compilation series, this time on Rectangle Astral. When, at the end of the 80s, the wave of Techno washed over Europe, it not only revolutionized the world of music at large…. it also created a multitude of local genres and subgenres, some of which became universal references, while others remain little known to this day. In Valencia, on the Spanish Riviera, one did not only move to the hardcore rhythms of Mákina in those days. As early as 1989, Julio Nexus and his label Megabeat, later joined by German Bou and Nezkabel Records, began to produce the first records of what was to become “El Sonido De Valencia”. Influenced by Synth Pop, New Wave and EBM, the Sound of Valencia is an unidentified object in the story of techno music: with its baroque synthetic saxophones, its Spanish Twin Peaks samples, its subtle electro beats and its almost kitsch melodies, it has little in common with the 140+ BPM hardcore Tekkno happening everywhere else at the time. Today, almost 25 years later, it is high time to pay tribute to a mostly forgotten and totally underrated scene, which had nonetheless an everlasting impact on many South-European ravers. High time to „remember the future“, with nine contemporary reenactments of the Valencian magic.
