Thank goodness that sample cleared. (Shuttered in May this year, it lives on as a label.) The typography of the record’s center sticker is a subtle nod to Basic Channel, who pioneered Berlin dub techno back in the early 1990s, but don’t be fooled: Dioxippe is a thrilling reminder of the uncompromising, freeform spirit that a new generation of American producers is bringing to underground scenes around the world right now.

That their sound plays such an outsize role in Anunaku’s “Bronze Age” is a pleasant surprise; it gives the music, nominally techno, a unique edge that brings it in line with the very special and very underrated records by onetime Steve Reich Ensemble member Glenn Velez.
