2020, 2×12″, Ostgut Ton.
When looking for someone to create a very special mix to celebrate Berghain’s 15th birthday, Ostgut Ton turned to Luke Slater, a DJ/producer who has played in the infamous Berlin club more times than most. Slater decided to take a different approach, creating a slew of brand-new cuts out of samples and snippets of tracks buried within the German label’s vast discography. These were then stitched together to form a mix that the label is making free to download from April 3rd. The “O-Ton Reassembled” tracks are superb though, hence this double 12″ featuring the best of them. Mostly focused firmly on the dancefloor, they range from loop-heavy techno jack-tracks to pleasingly melodic and hypnotic affairs, via occasional forays into 21st century breakbeat science, polyrhthmic dancefloor slammers and fiendishly out-there dancefloor soundscapes. – Juno
