Nexus 21 - Mind Machines [Network Records]
Fans of UK techno are in for a long-overdue treat with the release of 'Mind Machines', the lost Nexus 21 album that had remained sealed away for decades.
Originally recorded after Mark Archer and Chris Peat’s pioneering sessions at Kevin Saunderson’s KMS Studio in Detroit, 'Mind Machines' was a crucial stepping stone in their musical evolution. What began as a deeply personal exploration of the Techno sounds they admired quickly transformed into something uniquely British, fusing Detroit’s pioneering energy with their own vision. Featuring contributions from Detroit legends Marc Kinchen and Anthony Shakir, 'Mind Machines' introduces a raw, energetic edge that still sounds remarkably fresh, with rare unreleased tracks like the live performance from London’s Brain Club and tougher versions of their hits like 'Self Hypnosis'.
This ultimate record reaffirms the bold, innovative spirit of a legendary act shaping the landscape of British techno in ways that continue to influence the genre today.
