TB Arthur Details Next 12″
The anonymous Chicago producer rolls out a new EP, said to be mastered from the original DAT tapes.
As popular mythology has it, TB Arthur is a Chicago producer whose test pressings from the ’90s only began surfacing late last year. Three of those 12″s—the most recent of which was reviewed by XLR8R—have been distributed by Berlin outpost Hard Wax over the past few months, and a fourth EP is now due for release. Entitled Tracks from DAT, the record’s acidic techno workouts were allegedly mastered from the original tapes and become officially available on vinyl on April 10, although copies are already in stock at Hard Wax. Previews for all four tracks can be heard here, and EP cut “Je Parle Acid,” which opens the recent TB Arthur Boiler Room mix, can be streamed below.
