Flashback by Gregor Tresher feat. Sven Väth
Turbo makes a passionate case for German representation in techno with this EP from Gregor Tresher featuring Sven Väth.
Rarity used to mean something. Limited pressings. DJ autographs. The one and only Mona Lisa. Now that we’re dancing in the digital land of plenty, that’s all gone the way of one-night jeans. With ALL of this mind, consider the following facts about our latest EP and get ready to get rare.
- This collaboration between longtime collaborators Gregor Tresher & Sven Väth marks debuts on Turbo for both artists. Rarity Score: 9.2. Real world equivalent: an honest man in Washington, DC.
- Gregor brought the groove, while Väth performs vocals on both tracks, which is rare AND special. Rarity Score: 9.7. Real world equivalent: NFT of “Tiga’s Comet”.
- Väth rarely releases music on labels other than his own Cocoon Recordings. Rarity Score: 9.4. Real world equivalent: a handsome man in Washington, DC.
As for the music, “Flashback” instantly transports you to the exact moment you experienced ego death at an illegal rave called either “Perception Transmission” or “Morph Car.” Meanwhile, “I See You” follows through on its titular threat to validate your emotions.
Finally, with all this talk going around about the importance of rarity, please remember that what’s truly special is the bond we share as label and listener. As far as we’re concerned, you are NOT numbers in a spreadsheet. You are NOT completely interchangeable. You are NOT the sort of people we would actively avoid in person. What you are is you’re beautiful, and that’s all that ever really matters.
