one of the most consistently good labels that came out of dubstep imo. and didnât branch out too far. sure they had a bit meh period when the label was putting out âbass musicâ and some dungeon bits, but still better than what most labels were doing at the time imo.
dunno why the label doesnât get the hype it deserves
idk man Pinch has played pretty much every single noteworthy techno floor in the past year, and his âswitchâ is still fairly recent. just because RA prefers your next generic techno tool outlet doesnât mean Tectonic isnât appreciated. I think Cold made some waves with their releases so far, getting played by many different people from various backgrounds (not unlike Livity or Hessle back in the day).
well their last dubstep bits werenât nearly as rinsed as whatever dungeon bore osiris or tempa churned. the cold stuff i donât recall seeing getting too much hype outside of the 130/ex-dubstep techno heads - miles away from getting played by say ricardo villalobos like some of the hessle stuff
and in the music âpressâ thereâs barely any hype nowadays for tectonic release outside of maybe a compilation and some pinch side-projects.
pinch being rated as a dj is different from tectonic getting praises
