PREMIERE: Martin Schulte - Skyscrapers Street (VRIL Remix)[Greyscale]

When Moritz von Oswald and Mark Ernestus pioneered Dub Techno in the early '90s, a genre with origins in Detroit, Germany, and Caribbeans, the majority thought that is just a moment and that it will be short-lived. Thirty years after and the genre still keeps 'reinventing' itself with countless releases by several generations of producers who keep pushing the boundaries and keep exploring the genre's depths. In theory, Dub Techno has a simple formula - rhythm and texture. With technology nowadays, producers can dig deeper and further develop these two ingredients and make something unique.

The Vilnius-based record label, Greyscale is known for its Dub Techno aesthetics and it's been around for almost a decade. Their latest release, 'Dancing Street/Skyscraper Street', welcomes Martin Schulte, a talented producer hailing from Russia, to their impressive catalog. This double-single release is accompanied by brilliant remixes from Greyscale founder grad_u and Giegling and Delsin affiliate Vril.

Vril's remix of 'Skyscraper Street' brings the pure essence of Dub Techno, a genre that broke new ground in terms of electronic music that one might listen to away from the dance floor. The track is a slow-burner, with lots of details that flicker and create a cosmic atmosphere, that can do wonders on your home set up as well as the part of a warm-up set during the Techno marathon in a dark club.

'Dancing Street/Skyscraper Street' is coming out on June 16th via Greyscale.
