Well, letsee, Abe Duque has his own label called Tension records. They're out of Hollis, QUEENS! The label has been around for roughly two years now and has at least 8 releases that I can think of to it's name. There are also sub-labels called Rancho-Relaxo (dedicated for more interesting electronic doodling) and Hollis Haus (take a wild guess). Abe's style varies greatly. He bangs the cid on some releases, but goes in *completely* difierent directions in another. He's even done some remixes for Program 2 (Una, if I'm not mistaken). I believe the release with Sahko was part of an exchange program where the Sahko folks released a record on Tension and in return, Abe would release a record on Sahko. Highly recommended if your thing is minimal strips of music dropped into black space. : ) In any case, I've been waiting two years for him and his label to "blow up" in a big way. All he needs is a little something I can't put my finger on. Speaking of good new labels, anyone pick up the new Ersatz record? Beautiful, analoguesque sounds. Two for two. imout, sashainboston
