Metroplex Launches Reissue Campaign
Juan Atkins has shared details of several represses, which will begin to filter into stores from April.
Juan Atkins has revealed that Detroit-based Metroplex will reissue several of their early records, with a series beginning next month.
Metroplex, launched in 1985 by Atkins, is one of the original techno labels to come out of Detroit. This year, its boss is coordinating a reissue campaign, beginning with a host of his Model 500 alias EPs—Night Drive (Thru-Babylon), Sound Of Stereo / Off To Battle and The Chase.
Atkins also revealed that the campaign will not stop there, but include material from his Infiniti alias, as well as the highly sought-afterSpectral Nomad EP by The Vision (a.k.a. Robert Hood). On top of this, Green Velvet and Luciano will jump on board for a remix package of the label’s first single, “No UFO’s.”
Stay tuned into the Metroplex site for more information soon.
