MARC ROMBOY — Gemini 3x12"

Twenty years after its original release in 2006, Marc Romboy’s debut album Gemini returns to Systematic Recordings, fully remastered and reimagined for a special anniversary edition. Released just two years after the label’s foundation, Gemini captured a defining moment in electronic music. As the minimal techno movement was reshaping club culture, Romboy combined the raw spirit of Chicago house, the futuristic energy of Detroit techno and the hypnotic grooves of European club music into a sound distinctly his own. Featuring collaborations with Robert Owens, Blake Baxter and Tommie Sunshine, the album includes one of Systematic’s most enduring tracks: “Freakin’”. Originally released in 2005, it marked Marc’s very first collaboration with Detroit pioneer Blake Baxter. Two decades later, the track is creating more buzz than ever, connecting with a new generation of clubbers and DJs. The anniversary edition arrives as a triple 12-inch vinyl package in green, white and black, featuring newly remastered audio and “Get Fresh”, a previously unreleased production from 2005. Completing the package is a striking new graphic artwork, reinterpreting the original photographic sleeve from 2006 while preserving its visual DNA. A celebration of Systematic’s early days, the spirit of the minimal era and a debut album that has lost none of its relevance. Twenty years on. Still fresh. Still freakin’!
