Can't help it...this one reminds me of some warehouse in Detroit circa 1994.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Yeah man, I`ve got a fair few bits of Bumload in my vinyl collection, from back when it was a techno label.

I like some of the stuff. I like a lot of other stuff too. Don't care which label it came from I like it, I like it...

Bumload was fucking ace back in the day (about the tenth time I've said that on here I reckon!)
I think it's Bumload 15 which I wore out from playing it so much. One of the tracks on the record wouldn't cue up cos it'd been played so much. Proper filthy, groovey, loopy techno.

That`s kinda what makes the fall from grace all the more sad.

Oh I've got a ton of Bumload vinyl from the mid/late 90s. It was pretty badass back then, and among the first techno I heard that had really good mastering (RIP Nilz).
I dropped this for years, pretty much any night I played out
Yes this is by far the best piece of music Adam have done. Very few seems to know it. It's sort of a hidden gem for some reason.
Too bad it's pitched down a bit in this video.

The beginning of Bumload was the beginning to the end of techno for me. I can't think of any label having such a negative influence. Of course there was also Primate Recordings.

Ah come on, primate put out some great releases.
The primate 10s are classics.
Tracks like Inter Primate Express by Samuel Onervas are classics of the time.
Admittedly they eventually went on to flood the market and become a part of the vinyl/distrib crash in the early 00's.

I liked a lot of the Swedish guys releases on Primevil, which was a sort of sublabel of Primate. Like:

Yes, agreed. Sorry I said track above but I really meant the whole record. Actually I was a big fan of Svek, especially when their releases split between house and mid-tempo techno (and before it was a straight up house label). Always loved this one as well (by Jesper Dahlbäck):
true classic.
one can't like not have that one in his collection...

Sellout himself was pretty good in the early years.
His first album, Protechtion was pretty good, he clearly was ripping off/paying homage/influence to some spanish and birmingham stuff, but it was a good album. Compare it to the pop muck he does now.....
Everyone sells out in the end I suppose.

Svek is one of the most important record labels for me personally. One of the very best there ever was.
And yeah, everything from The Persuader is gold.

Funny note, they recently showed a documentary on Swedish television about Sellout. An explanation to why he and Bumload sounds like it does now might be that, as he himself proclaims, he's been musically lost.
