VARIOUS — Quince LP 3x12"

Various – QUINCE LP marks the 15-year anniversary of Non Series with a substantial three-disc, 13-track compilation (catalogue NON075) released on 19 October 2026. Issued as a 3×12-inch vinyl set, the record gathers a wide spectrum of contemporary techno, from hypnotic grooves to atmospheric depths, showcasing the label’s open-ended aesthetic. Within the Non Series catalogue, QUINCE follows a series of recent outings such as D-Leria’s RISONANZA (NON073), ScØPe’s MIRE (NON072) and Luigi Tozzi’s PLASTIC VENUS (NON071), all issued earlier in 2026. The compilation sits alongside these releases as a broader statement, bringing in artists who have not previously appeared on the imprint while still resonating with the label’s established sound. Side A opens with Vladw’s “Ushba”, a track that sets a hypnotic tone and establishes the record’s immersive mood. Translate’s “Language” adds a further layer of rhythmic intricacy, deepening the percussive focus. Evigt Mörker’s “Otaliga Änglar” shifts the atmosphere toward darker, more immersive territory, while Rrose closes the first disc with “Guilty Traces”, delivering a precise sense of electronic tension that caps the side neatly. Disc 2 widens the palette. Cia Rebeck’s “Creador” and Na Nich’s “Code” explore contrasting approaches to modern techno, each retaining a distinct character. Zara’s “Amber” introduces a driving rhythmic structure that propels the set forward, and Efdemin’s “Nocturne” offers a spacious, atmospheric counterpoint, illustrating the compilation’s ability to move fluidly between intensity and ambience. The third record gathers some of the most recognizable contributors. Peryl’s “Specular Echoes” opens the side with a refined electronic texture, leading into Function’s “Shifting Borders”, which showcases a precise techno vocabulary. Skjöld’s “Altered Perception” continues the exploration of nuanced production, before Mathew Jonson’s “Timelines” provides a sophisticated arrangement that eases the transition to the final track. Kangding Ray’s “Pacific Coast Highway” concludes the compilation with a strong sense of resolution, avoiding a conventional peak-time climax while delivering a satisfying closure. In the context of Non Series’ fifteen-year trajectory, QUINCE functions as both a snapshot of the label’s current network and a document of its ongoing openness. By juxtaposing established names with newcomers, the set demonstrates how divergent production philosophies can coexist without diluting the label’s identity. For DJs, the three-record format supplies a versatile toolkit: tracks range from hypnotic, percussion-heavy pieces suitable for deep-time moments to more spacious selections that work well in later-night or transitional slots. Collectors will appreciate the breadth of the compilation as a curated overview of the contemporary techno scene that surrounds Non Series, rather than a straightforward retrospective. The release arrives as a 3×12-inch vinyl set, granting each track ample space within the sequence and preserving the physical presence expected of a substantial techno compilation.
