Minimal techno from Sten aka Lawrence that deserves more than that tag, with its rich synths, haunting melodies and a certain warmth present amongst those cold alien sounds that you might associate with Dial. You can hear a starker, European style alongside the echoes of early Transmat - combining the atmosphere of Detroit's 'Music Institute' with the contemporary sounds of Berlin's Panorama Bar. Last ever vinyl copy!!
