With 70+ releases, 40+ remixes and 75+ compilation appearances and still counting in under 4 years, prolific would be an understatement to one of today's youngest and most invigorating producers in dance music today - John Dahlb?ck. He's covered the vast spectrum of the electronic music community in record time; from his first recording for the prestigious Chicago based Deep4life imprint, being a major force behind Steve bug's house label Dessous, his own 10 releases on his renowned imprint Pickadoll, the timeless contributions to Morris Audio, his collaborations with his equally fruitful cousin Jesper Dahlb?ck as Hugg & Pepp remixing Slam for Soma among others and 12's on their own Dahlb?ck label plus their massive single as Dahlb?ck & Dahlb?ck for Turbo and that breakthrough remix for The Knife?and we've barely scratched the surface as his credits run longer than the end-list of The Lord Of The Rings. We're running out of paper and patience so let's go into why we're here? it's only natural when one of 90's techno's most copious musicians and Kompakt co-owner Wolfgang Voigt struck a personal affinity to John Dahlb?ck when he reached out to Kompakt under his new techno alias Hug. At that point, a new imprint (aptly titled k2) was being developed in attempts to bring a trueist form of minimal techno back to the Kompakt fold - Dahlb?ck had found a versatile method to create playful, melodic but tremendously functional minimal techno for what would become his first EP 'The Angry Ghost' for K2 (and the 2nd release for the imprint). Now with 4 singles under his belt for the imprint as Hug, Dahlb?ck's releases have helped build the identity (and successes) of K2 so therefore it's fitting that he be the first musician to deliver the first full length commemorating an artist from the imprint. 'Heroes' is not simply a collection of these 12? singles (though the album features 2 favourites 'Raido' and 'Birds' previously released on K2) but a tremendously adherent album that reflects the full-sounding nature of his Hug project in a heterogeneous fashion - analog meets digital in the most fundamental of ways.
