 Spektre - Casting Shadows Without Lights (Remixes)With Spektre's debut album causing a bit of a stir worldwide, it seemed like a very logical progression to to take two of the album's highlights and have them remixed by some of our favorite and most esteemed techno producers. Umek and Reset Robot hardly need any introduction-their many productions having cemented their reputations as A-listers in the techno world. Umek turns his hand to "Casting Shadows Without Light" and turns in a characteristically pounding version of the excellent original fusing his trademark drum and bass programming with Spekre's vocals and original parts to devastating effect. Reset Robot goes for "Descent" and creates a heads down percussion led dancefloor shaker, that is sure to stir up some commotion on a wide variety of dancefloors, the world over!
 Pig & Dan - Mussian Rother EP (Spektre's Polygon Outing Remix)After releasing the hugely successful “The Heat EP” on Yoshitoshi in 2009, Pig & Dan are back with 2 new originals. “Mussian Rother" and the b--‐side "Symphonies" are prime examples of Pig & Dan’s unique ability to provide forward thinking tech, replete with amazing sound design and mixes, while maintaining dance--‐floor sensibility. U.K. duo
 SPEKTRE ‘CASTING SHADOWS WITHOUT LIGHT’ album release!Our money’s on summer 2010 being a vintage year for live British dance music. Sure, the old guard such as Leftfield, Underworld, Way Out West, and Orbital will be picking up the headlines for their return to the festival circuit, but in terms of new blood, look no further than techno duo, Spektre.
 RESPEKT is the label manifestation of the internationally recognised artist duo Spektre.It has been developed as a base for the research and exploration of their sound and to experiment within the new and innovative world of electronic music that we live in today. Derived from an anagram of Spektre, the Respekt label stands for the artist's interminable belief in the underground soundtrack that spans the globe, and for the inspiration they gleam from producing, performing, and moving in the circles it revolves in.

 Spektre 'Live at Glade' Album OUT NOW!It's a festival set. A dark, razor-sharp four-hander of tracks, FX, edits and more FX again, dished out in a hot tent to crazed kids in the late evening of one of the sunniest days of this year. It was a great festival, Glade - sunshine, countryside, a crowd that's equal part hippies, kids, rave veterans and sun worshippers, with Jeff Mills headlining. And the cozy little Sancho Panza tent off to one side that on the Friday night hosted Veryverywrongindeed - Tim Sheridan playing back to back with Mr C for four hours, a killer set from Mike Monday, Josh Tweek and Frenchy warming up, and a live set bang in the middle by our UK techno duo, Spektre. “Who is Spektre?”
It’s the vision of successful producers/djs Paul Maddox and Filthy Rich, who came together through a bond of minimal techno, and a willingness to experiment unmercifully with new sounds. Unsettling any crowd that stands in their way, with their razor-sharp beats and explosive chemistry, their releases and live sets have been menacing dance floors ever since their project was born. Stacking up an intimidating amount of industry knowledge and skill between them, the Spektre monster is storming from strength to strength, taking no prisoners… Filthy Rich has released countless successful tracks as well as gaining the support of top name DJs, whilst Paul Maddox has been fiercely producing music since the age of 15. Although coming from two very diverse musical backgrounds, their love of minimalism and attraction to cutting edge technology created a lethal combination. Their sinful sounds draw inspiration from early R&S releases, Joey Beltram, right through to modern masterminds such as M.A.N.D.Y, Plasmik and Trentemoller. They use their combined experiences of minimalism to produce dark sinister sounds mixed in with twisted vocals and unnerving foundations, whilst remaining accessible to the crowds. Connoisseur of the scene Oliver Huntemann, snatched up Spektre’s early releases for his own label “Dance Electric.” Since then the pair have earnt admiration and support from Sven Vath to Tim Sheridan, Audiojack to Fergie. Championing their sound, tracks such as “A Glimpse Outside” became immediate hits - launched straight onto DJ Mags cover cd. Further successes like “Haze” and “Minimalist Machinist” gained huge popularity in the clubs internationally, played by the likes of Mike Monday and Audiofly while one of Spektres latest offerings “Hover” was thrashed out at Cocoon by the legendary Sven Vath on New Years Eve, , sure signs that this pair have indeed arrived. Spektre have been unleashing their dirty live sets in clubs up and down the country, casting their spell on thousands. With their insatiable energy for touring, 2008 sees their unique sound reaching the shores of South America, Russia & Ukraine, with a album showcase performance at this summers Glade Festival, there is no doubt this year will be as full of the same hectic gig schedule as the last. Expect to witness their undefined sets storming through clubland and expect to walk away breathless! To catch their recent releases, look out for “Tempest” and “88 mph” as well as remixes on “Tomographie” by Andre Crom and “Black Box” from Jim Rivers. Future hits include track “The Ride” (Suruba Records), “Pacemaker” (Rotary Cocktail) and “On a Roll” (Very Very Wrong Indeed) plus an incredible remix of “Two Em” - Manjala reached no3 in the beatport minimal charts. The boys have also been working their magic on remixes of “The Arrival” by Zoo Brazil, “24 Bit Bleep” from Digital Filth. An exciting future lies ahead for Spektre with their debut album released to Tim Sheridans VVVWI recordings, pushing them out onto that minimal edge even further. Alongside a demanding release schedule on several different labels, one thing is certain, this year Spektre can do no wrong. Charts September 2010
