By the time Trace arrived in October 2001, the Rhythm & Sound language was fully formed — and RS-06 is one of the clearest and most assured expressions of it. Two tracks, two sides, each one a masterclass in the kind of restraint that accumulates emotional weight slowly and releases it almost imperceptibly. Back on wax via its 2026 repress and sounding as immense as ever.
Trace occupies the A-side with the deep, submerged patience characteristic of the project at its most focused — low-end pressure, slowly morphing harmonic detail and dub space held in careful equilibrium. Imprint carries the flip with a similar sense of quiet inevitability, the title itself suggesting something left behind rather than announced. Two tracks that do not announce themselves and do not need to. Essential catalogue from Moritz von Oswald and Mark Ernestus, restored to circulation.
