BEPPU — Ipop LP 2x12"

Organic Analogue returns with a rediscovery of Beppu's rare dubbed-out electronica and circuit-bent techno. Andrew Hargreaves is the Manchester-based producer behind this alias which was first making waves back in the late-2000s. Back then it was three limited CDr EPs in 2009, which came with just 50 copies each, that made a stir and still stand up today. As such, the sought-after recordings receive a proper vinyl pressing and have been mastered by Miles Whittaker. Two distinct remixes from Demdike Stare also add further quality and contemporary context to the origins, which blend dub techno and braindance with textured noise. IPOP continues Organic Analogue's tradition of spotlighting overlooked talent having already done so with names like DJ Guy and Jean-Louis Huhta. DJ Feedback dBridge: "A moment in time." Ben UFO: "This is gorgeous, thank you." Tolouse Low Trax: "Very much my start into Electronic Music back in the days. Cool Reminder!" Stonecirclesampler: "All time Manchester classic from one of the best in the city, incredible project and so so so happy for it to be reissued and on vinyl, original and Demdike remixes are all beyond incredible and absolutely nail the sound of the late 2000s early 2010s post-Sandwell District/Berghain techno and pre-noise/techno/post-punk - an absolute snapshot of a city and sound moving FWD, brilliant cant wait for the wax!!!" Eric Cloutier (Palinoia, Tresor | Detroit): "Well god damn. I mean...god damn." Yu Su: "These are so good. Demdike Stare's remix also!!" Ruf Dug: "Next level even almost 20 years later." Silent Era (Of Paradise) : "Great project. What a gem."
