Led by “Aquatic (Carl Craig’s Save The World Mix)” (1991), this collection brings together Motown classics that have been beloved from the ’90s to the present—and have long been hard to find! Featuring veteran second-generation Detroit techno artist JOHN BELTRAN. A rare collection of works, including those released under the PLACID ANGLES moniker. Featuring soft acid tones paired with powerful basslines, this release brings together Detroit’s spiritual essence in these timeless classics, along with previously unreleased tracks and brand-new remixes—all in one go.

An essential compilation tracing the career of JOHN BELTRAN—an artist who has left a legacy of masterpieces on prestigious labels such as 〈R&S〉, 〈PEACEFROG〉, and 〈UNIQUITY〉, and who is considered one of the modern pillars of ambient techno and the Detroit scene—is now available! “Aquatic (Carl Craig’s Save The World Mix)” (sample 1)—a deep techno masterpiece co-produced with OPEN HOUSE and remixed by CARL CRAIG—continues to command high prices on the secondhand market. The classic “Fragile”—a track that sublimates atmospheric soundscapes inspired by nature into techno—is included here not only in its original version but also with a new remix by TERRACE! This definitive collection features five original tracks from the ’90s, including previously unreleased material, as well as a new remix by DETROIT IN EFFECT. With a masterful design that captures the liminal boundary between deep house and techno with mystical beauty, this collection features nothing but classics that are still beloved as Detroit dancefloor anthems today. Given how difficult it is to gather them all in one place, this compilation and reissue is a true delight. Be sure to check out the tracklist. (Original Japanese text by Akie)
