Detroit techno legend Derrick May has announced the release of a 23-track compilation on its way via his own Transmat imprint. Called Beyond the Dance: Transmat 4, the massive two-disc compilation brings together tunes from both familiar techno veterans like DVS1 and more obscure, underground artists such as Rennie Foster, Greg Gow, and Djinxx. So far, the record is only scheduled to be released on December 5 in Japan, because, as May puts it in a brief interview with Resident Advisor, the DJ/producer feels that Japan is the only place in the world that truly appreciates the music. Nonetheless, you can check out Beyond the Dance‘s artwork and tracklist below.
