A beautifully restored ambient-minimal classic on Kompakt from Cologne producer Olaf Dettinger, Oasis returns fully remastered for maximum depth and clarity. Originally released in 2000, Oasis marked a defining moment for both Dettinger and the Kompakt catalogue, expanding the language of minimal techno into widescreen ambient territory.

Across seven fluid movements, Dettinger suspends gentle rhythmic pulses inside warm, drifting layers of texture - subtly propulsive yet deeply meditative. It’s a record that blurs the lines between techno and pure ambience with effortless grace, and remains one of Kompakt’s most enduring albums.
