An uncovered early-1990s transmission from Heinrich Mueller — the producer behind Drexciya, Arpanet, Dopplereffekt and a constellation of further aliases — surfacing under his Intellitronic moniker via Glasgow's Rubadub. Three of these four tracks have never been released before. The lead track Pixel made its sole prior appearance on the Magic Tracks (Deep Detroit Volume Two) CD compiled by Juan Atkins in 1993, but Stencil, Inkjet and Hex Colour Code remained in the archive until now. Thirty-plus years later, they sound as vital and as strange as ever.
Four tracks of stripped-back machine funk referencing pre-millennium printing technology — the conceptual rigour that has always run through Mueller's work present from the first bar, the Detroit electro lineage unmistakable beneath the lo-fi, functional precision. These are productions built with the same focused intelligence and alien character that defined the best of the Drexciya catalogue, applied here in an earlier and rawer form. An essential archival discovery from one of electronic music's most singular and enduring minds.
