Production
Label bosses AlterImage return with their second EP on the label full of Tech-House and Techno sounds.
The title track “Time Change” is a groovy melodic chugger that floats along nicely. “Tech Yourself” gets even deeper and moves along with its hypnotic rhythm and chilling atmospheres. “Quant Flow” is a bass driven, room-rocking tune that will make the club throb.
“Time Change” remixes come by way of John Dalagelis and Tini Tun & Mau V who both keep the tech house feel and find new and unique uses of the original’s parts. Absence of Essence turn “Red Scope” into a full on techno assault with a twisted broken beat breakdown.
Support from: Dubfire, Terry Francis, Richie Hawtin, Nick Warren, Anthony Pappa, Slam, Dibby Dougherty, Marci Bailey, Randall Jones, PQM, Cid Inc, Tini Tun, Kasey Taylor, Luke Porter, Snake Sedrick, MANIK, D-Nox, 16B, Paul Oakenfold, Wehbba, Fiord, Paco Osuna and more!

Warped between three minds, Absence of Essence brings you re:produce pack 005 with over 103 MB of infectious techno and tech house samples. The pack is filled with intense, twisted sound effects, rhythmical noise and synth loops, mangled vox loops and wicked drum patterns with dirty techno undertones. Most of the samples have been recorded at 126 BPM and are all ready for use in Ableton Live. The signature AOE sounds have a unique personality, and once you’ve listened to the preview clip you will hear why this is one of our favorite and most inspirational re:produce packs to date.
