    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    ! ! ! IMPORTANT NOTICE ! ! !

    You might have realised the digital track listed above is a little pricey. If you really want to buy it, we’re not going to stop you! Bandcamp no longer supports physical albums without a digital download. So we faked one ;-) However, we much prefer you purchase the Basic Moves 03 vinyl, because that is the actual, physical release. Digital files will be sent to all who order the record, but PLEASE NOTE these are vinyl masters that were not originally intended to be sold/distributed digitally.

    Breaking his silence after twenty years, Sebastian Snoeck a.k.a Sebastian S. will be the second member of the Belgian collective “BWP Experiments” to release on the Basic Moves imprint. He has handed over two previously unpublished tracks made under the moniker Caustic 14.

    After listening to “Personal Space Invader” in 1997, Carl Craig asked Sebastian S. to produce new material for his own label, Planet E. “Message in a box” and “Rising Star” were therefore made as a response to this request. However, due to a political transatlantic rift, the tracks never saw the light of day and have since been stored on DAT tapes, hidden away from the general public’s ears.

    If I had to describe Sebastian’s output, I’d say it is most importantly energetic, positive, and groovy. It bears the mark of a certain nostalgia, shying away from the blind celebration of both futurism and experimentation in order to reach intemporality. This attempt to exist outside of time gives his productions a certain character and in my opinion, his music has come to embody something I like to call “Space Opera Techno”.

    Sebastian S has succeeded where many before him have failed: by avoiding copycat tactics and simplified approaches to production he managed to create a singular identity. The tracks are recognisable after the first few seconds – and that’s what makes his work so unique!
