After more than 15 releases, Delsin sub-label Ann Aimee releases its first compilation, Inertia/Resisting Routine. Of course, rather than looking backwards, the Dutch label run by Marsel Delsin has instead compiled and commissioned -- together with Delta Funktionen -- 16 brand-new and exclusive tracks. They come from a new generation of label associates from the past half decade, with all of them therefore sharing certain ideals when it comes to brooding, darkened techno, as is Ann Aimee's mission. Operating in the murky under-waters of the contemporary techno scene, each producer enlisted serves up their own idiosyncratic vision: some are acid-tinged, some swing like a monkey and some lean on dub or house aesthetics for inspiration, but every single one will likely hypnotize dancefloors just as any good techno track should. So then, bold drums, analog aesthetics and meaty grooves are all present and correct throughout. Taking in names like Delta Funktionen, Mike Dehnert, Roman Lindau and Sacha Rydell, Cosmin TRG, Peter Van Hoesen, Conforce and techno innovator Redshape alongside new school heavyweights like Skudge, Lucy, Milton Bradley and Marcelus as well as newcomers Area Forty_One, Ozka and Sawlin, the Inertia/Resisting Routine tracklist reads like a who's-who of modern underground techno. Naturally, then, what it sounds like is the most definitive techno compilation in years.
