A compilation album from a team-up between STEVEN JULIEN's 〈APRON〉 and veteran Amsterdam apparel brand "PATTA"! Beatmakers and producers connecting LA and London come together here. Eight tracks reflecting the label's unique vision, from vintage broken beat to experimental raw techno.
Track List

A new project from 〈APRON〉, the independent label that since its 2014 launch has carved out its own path in the UK's contemporary electronic music scene while linking up with the West Coast! Alongside the label's familiar roster, numerous artists from the Tokyo/London connection 〈NCA〉 take part. Highlights include "Candy Floss," a breakbeat cut from SHY ONE, London's much-hyped rising star who has released on 〈EGLO〉, and SHAMOS's "737363," where shuffling rhythms mesh with intoxicating synthesis. There's also "E46," on which label boss STEVEN JULIEN sets drum breaks in motion. A record in which the experimental spirit, raw appeal, and soulfulness that have always been at STEVEN JULIEN's core run through every track. (Original Japanese text by Akie)
