about

We're proud to announce the variant reworks and redesigns (conducted and compiled over the past 10 years) of Radius's epic debut, "Obsolete Machines" release. These versions build on the very essence of the original, but with fathoms-deep layers and subtle tonalities transforming the originals into an ethereal ocean of space and bass. This is a sonic world all its own.

Limited Edition 2XCD set available here:

Thoughts:

Ten years of variants, reworks, and redesigns from Radius. On Obsolete Machines [Variant Rewords] Stephen Hitchell takes dub techno to its Nth degree, and dubs out his own dub techno tracks. The amount of space he's found in these tracks is truly remarkable. FFO: Techno from very far away. -Norman

Steven Hitchell a.k.a Radius transmits his Variant Reworks of ‘Obsolete Machines’, a batch of his earliest, diaphanous dub techno recordings dating back to the mid-late ‘90s. -Boomkat
