Techno mix from and interview with Russ. "I think with Uncharted it's a lot to do with the people. I refuse to work with anyone who isn't on my wavelength. I do this because I love it so why would I want to spend time arguing with someone or being suspicious of them or they of me? It's a very honest and down-to-earth bunch of people, they are all a pleasure to know and to work with and of course they're all extremely talented." Yes.
"If there were fewer labels and releases everyone would be happier, but that's difficult to accomplish. I am hoping for a loud voice of reason talking to everybody: producers, labels, distributors, and shops. Like hey, "Think it over, think twice before you release a record." Maybe things can get better again. The main problem isn't that people download or don't buy records anymore, the main problem is that there's just too many releases."
"Synthpop, wonky techno and electronica from a selection of Uncharted Audio artists and their friends." I made this.
Great Sherburne article on the past, present and future of electronic music. "Scenes and sounds that were once strictly local affairs now have no problem connecting with niche publics anywhere on earth."
