Areal Areal
Over almost a decade and 50+ releases, Areal has managed to carve a sound that is both unique and recognisable as it is versatile and unpredictable. The label was founded in October 2000 by Konfekt, Basteroid and Metope, and the label's major addition to its roster came with Ada, whose melodic, yet subtle techno releases proved hugely successful. But as with any great label, the B-sides are often as intriguing as the hits, and Areal's catalogue has plenty of off-beat gems to be discovered.

The label founded in Cologne and now-based in Berlin led by Konfekt, Basteroid and Metope has a harvested a hearty catalogue over the past twelve years. Sampling older Areal tracks the label-heads have conjured up almost all-fresh material with contributions by affiliates Hrdvision and Falko Brocksieper too.

Puppet With Glass Eyes (Track 02 on this Maxi-Single)

galina, 2 years ago via zero-inch.com
What better place for Fairmount's latest EP than the ever unpredictable and versatile Areal records. The title track is a frantic race of acid tinged madness and galloping hats, its counter-part 'Puppet With Glass Eyes' a more subdued affair with its chiming bells, enticing the listener to lose their self in the loop.

Areal's own Basteroid returns with a new single: 'Clavilux' is an 8-minute techno house epic of uplifting chords and dramatic string arrangements, while 'Thicket' is a more reduced stomper. Comes with a nice video of hand-drawn animations by Basteroid himself.
