Techno Low Entropy
Tribute to Things To Come Records Mix

Things To Come Records was started in the mid-90s by Oliver Chesler, who by this point was mostly known for his Hardcore and Techno releases on labels such as Industrial Strength and monikers like Temper Tantrum or being in groups such as Disintegrator and / or DJ Skinhead.
The first release, by Arrivers, was advertised as a secret weapon by the Planet Core Distribution, the second release gained much more exposure due to having three future "hits" on it. The EP was titled The Horrorist - One Night in NYC. The track Mission Extacy, a tale of two New York youths on their quest to pursue XTC and get high on a modern odyssey through an urban landscape became an underground sensation, and was for example remixed by Marc Acardipane years later. An even bigger impact had "Flesh Is The Fever", an apocalyptic tale of time travel and world domination (seemingly), which helped turn around the world of Gabber, being played again and again at big Hardcore raves and being hugely influential in the move from 180+ BPM compositions in the mid-90s Netherlands to slower outings and a new style. A track that helped to spawn a whole genre. If you think that can't be topped, there was also the title track "One Night In NYC" on this 12". Again a "spoken word tale", this time about sleazy sex and (eponymous) night life in NYC with a twist, this track went big, became number one on the German dance charts (prompting a video release) and a huge hit around the world and a true classic.
TTC went on from this, first in more Hardcore oriented releases, before setting more to an EBM and Electro style. Another release that stands out was Hypnotizer's first 12" "Into Nowhere" with six tracks full of Doom, disaster, and emotional Techno affairs, that was a key moment in the early Doomcore genre.

Now many years after TTC was created, the label proved to be important in the world of Techno and Hardcore, being a favorite amongst plenty of DJs and producers, and was and still is a large influence on the world of electronic music.
This mix focuses on the classic era of TTC.
