Levon Vincent - Levon Vincent (2015)

Always a tease, Levon Vincent chose to announce the release of his long-await debut album by drip-feeding information on social media. The subsequent meltdown among the online techno community may have been amusing to watch, but is testament to the Berlin-based New Yorker's impact over the last 10 years. Typically, concrete info has been thin on the ground - aside from the fact that it stretches across some four slabs of vinyl - and sound clips even thinner (aside from the hypnotic, yearning sweetness of 'Anti-Corporate Music', which Vincent gave away for free as a taster). The mystery, of course, just adds to the allure. Given Vincent's track record, we can safely say that it will be packed with next-level house and techno jams.
