"Long-awaited 4-tracker from the very talented electro contortionists Bitstream. Brothers Steve and Dave Connor have been releasing 12"s as Bitstream since 1998. Using a mixture of analog and digital gear, their music has been influenced by many different styles and appeared on labels like Signal, Modern Love, City Centre Offices and of course, Touchin' Bass. In 2005, a selection of their initial releases was compiled to form their debut album Domestic Economy 7 on Modern Love. Over the last couple of years, apart from their fantastic Depeche Mode remixes, things have been a bit quiet on the Bitstream front, so it's with great pleasure that Touchin' Bass present this latest piece of finery."

"Bitstream is the brothers Steve and Dave Conner, born in the mid 70's in a small town in Northamptonshire, England. Compiling some of Bitstream's rarest material to date alongside their best known work, One Third Standard Lux is a perfect starting point from which to establish the importance the brothers Conner have had on the British electro scene over the last few years. Originally championed by the Autechre-related Skam label in Manchester and their pioneering DJ Rob Hall, Bitstream have been releasing innovative and complex electronic music to an ever-growing audience of dedicated followers. Their love of experimental music is also proudly on display, vocal treatments on the harrowing 'Lost Cluster' and 'Madame Resonance' showing this to most devastating effect, while the unadulterated crunchy euphoria of the classic 'Radiotherapy' acts as the perfect album opener. With a formidable catalogue of releases to date for labels like City Centre Offices and their own Pylon Recordings, Bitstream transcend the confines of the electronic dancefloor through to a much broader spectrum of sound. One Third Standard Lux is the definitive retrospective of that particular sound."
