about

Once upon a time in a small town in Eastern Europe there was a vibrant and creative underground rave scene.

Being mind-blown and completely immersed in the rave and techno magic of the early 90’s, a dozen of electronic music worshippers in their early teenage-hood finally managed to equip a studio for shared amusement. Walls from bottom to top covered in The Prodigy posters and rave party flyers, a pile of second hand computers, live PA speakers gathered from hear and there, and a second hand Moog synth with one functional and one broken oscillator. Harbouring and harnessing local talent to invent the next night's auricular challenge.

This archival release contains selected dance floor knock-outs from the collective who founded and ran an entire electronic music culture in North-Western Bulgaria unnoticed between 1997 and the late 2000s. These sounds leave their local hideouts for the first time!

>O< Here's a review from the distributor:

"[-M-E-L-M-A-K-]'s new 12" is entitled All Stars: The Rave Years which gives you an idea of what to expect. These are high-tempo, dense and rave ready sounds from the drum & bass vanguard.

There is plenty of space out cosmic energy to the exploratory leads of X-Termal's 'Tragnal Kozz' then 'What If' (The Doulo Klan edit) is a tightly coiled stepper. Bugger lays down a hyper speed rhythm with drilling bass and slapping hits on 'No Silence Now' and Umbra's 'The Big Dumb' is a real slow-motion churner with textural synths and alien sound designs.

All four are ready to get the party going in different ways."
