Information

Influenced by the first wave of house and techno artists, electro old and new, and pioneering krautrock artists like michael rother, cluster and can. Subway (Alan James and Michael Kirkman) have had releases on a number of labels (such as Rob Da Bank’s Sunday Best) as well as releasing material on their own 3 Tone label. “44110” is classic old skool detroit techno mixed up with Italo-Disco. “Persuasion” mixes the driving punk -dance of the 80's new york no wave with the electronic improvisations of early '70's Cologne and Dusseldorf . As with all the best combinations the whole adds up to way more than the sum of it's parts. ??Equipment used in the creation of this record includes three computers, two ?mixing desks, nine synthesizers and an acoustically challenging studio space ?featuring panoramic views of east london.
