PRESS RELEASE:
► Respekt is the brand new label from Spektre; undoubtedly one of the hottest new acts to emerge in 2009. Lauded by the dance press, championed by the biggest names in techno (Vath, Dubfire, Garnier) and hugely popular with fans across the techno spectrum, Spektre’s big explosive sound has defined 2009.
The vision of producers / DJs Paul Maddox and Richard Wakley, Spektre was founded on a shared love for minimal techno and a willingness to experiment unmercifully with new sounds. Drawing inspiration as much from the old as the new their trademark sinister sound has wow-d fellow DJ and crowds alike.
Vektor is a dark destroyer. Building through waves of stripped back grooves, the main rising synth and acid laden hook comes flying out of the break with a force that is sure to knock over any peak-time dancefloor. Included on this package is the Vektool tool that isolates the sparse acid line for sampling fun!
Incognito continues the stripped back vibe of the EP with more rumbling deepness for the dark side. Fixed around a tight groove that shunts along at pace, this late-night cut gathers depth from the melodic undertones of the undulating hook to contrast neatly with the minimized starkness of the beats.
► Spektre are to release their debut album at the end of April, the next 2 singles on Respekt Recordings will be album samplers...expekt the unexpekted!

PRESS RELEASE
Our money’s on summer 2010 being a vintage year for live British dance music. Sure, the old guard such as Leftfield, Underworld, Way Out West, and Orbital will be picking up the headlines for their return to the festival circuit, but in terms of new blood, look no further than techno duo, Spektre.
Hailing from Sheffield - no stranger itself to successful man/machine syntheses - the pairing of ‘Filthy’ Rich and Paul Maddox is part of a new breed of rave-inspired, intelligent dance music young bucks.
They took the Glade festival and SW4 crowds by storm in 2009, having already travelled the UK, South American, US and European gig circuits packing out venues with their distinctive brand of exceptionally danceable electronic body music.
Release-wise, their productions and remixes for the likes of Fever Ray, Lionrock, Future Sound Of London, and many more, have afforded them plenty of plaudits from blogs and techno’s aristocracy (Sven Vath, Ritchie Hawtin, Laurent Garnier, and Dubfire are all fans).
‘Casting Shadows Without Light’ is an astonishing debut album. CD 1 is a mixture of vocal electronica, spoken word samples, sci-fi audio steals, and instrumentals, as the 13 tracks veer from noisy epics and ether-soaked techno torch songs, to ambient interludes and an atmospheric drum n bass closer. And when it comes to a delicate use of melody, Spektre exude more warmth and beauty in 16 bars than a thousand indie troubadours ever will.
CD2 brings together a selection of extended mixes from the album, each in a longer form with a nod to the band’s dancefloor origins.
International dates in the UK, Europe, Australia, Israel, Slovenia, US, and beyond, begin from February, touring the album with their all-new live show. Please see http://www.myspace.com/spektre1 full details.
