☢️ R-Zac (Crystal distortioN + 69db)
Stormcore 2 - A1
Label: Network 23 - NTW 23-30
Format: Vinyl, 12”
Country: France
Released: 1996
Genre: Electronic
Style: #hardcore #techno

Il disco è una delle pietre miliari assolute della musica rave underground europea e della cultura freetekno.

R-Zac è l’iconico duo formato da Crystal distortioN e 69db, entrambi membri storici del sound system britannico Spiral Tribe.

La traccia in questione - Stormcore 2 (A1) - è targata Network 23 (la label di riferimento degli Spiral Tribe, fondata in Francia dopo il loro “esilio” dal Regno Unito in seguito al famigerato Castlemorton Festival del 1992).

🔊 Il Contesto Musicale e l’Impatto

Il progetto R-Zac è nato per portare le performance live improvvisate (i celebri liveset eseguiti con macchine analogiche come Roland TB-303, TR-909 e campionatori) direttamente su vinile.

Il Suono: Stormcore 2 incarna perfettamente il suono Tribe/Acidcore della metà degli anni ‘90.

Caratterizzato da casse ipnotiche e martellanti, linee di basso acido in continua evoluzione e atmosfere mentali (da cui il termine Mental Techno), era il fulcro musicale dei Free Party e dei Teknival in tutta Europa.

La Network 23 non era solo una casa discografica, ma un vero e proprio manifesto politico e culturale di totale indipendenza dall’industria musicale commerciale.

I vinili stampati da Network 23 in quel periodo sono oggi considerati veri e propri oggetti da collezione per gli amanti del genere.

LIVE. IMPROVISED. NEVER THE SAME TWICE.

@69db_liveset returns to London for the closing night of the Spiral Tribe Exhibition and Rave 🌀

After experiencing illegal acid house parties in the 1980s, he busked between London, Paris and Berlin to fund his first experiments in electronic music.

A member of Spiral Tribe since 1991 and co-founder of the original @sp23official studio, 69db helped take electronic music beyond conventional DJing through fully improvised live performance.

On Saturday 19 September, 69db brings that same unpredictable live energy back to Distillery N.17 🏴‍☠️

69DB - LIVE
Saturday 19 September
22:00–07:00

A movement. A legacy. Four days to explore it.

16–19 September | London 🌀

For the first time in London, a four-day exhibition dedicated to Spiral Tribe @sp23official and the free party movement will take over @reinstate_project , transforming it into a space that tells one of the most influential stories of modern counterculture.

Unmasked presents: Spiral Tribe Exhibition and Rave.

An immersive experience built from exclusive archival material, artwork, photography and first-hand accounts from the people who lived it.

Across four days, the programme includes:

• Exhibition
• Panel Talks + Q&A
• Workshops
• Film Screening + Q&A
• Guest DJs throughout the four days
• The SP23 closing rave at @distillery.n17

With contributions from members of Spiral Tribe, @joerushlondon (Mutoid Waste Company), @trinderfilms (@freepartydocumentary), @alessandro_ugo, @odyssey_sound_system, @r.m.s_audio, ADHG’s and more.

Exhibition tickets are now available, with free entry and optional supporter tickets to help make independent cultural projects like this possible.

From the exhibition to the dancefloor.

After four days of exhibitions, talks, workshops, screenings and collective memory, the programme returns to where it all began: the rave.

On Saturday 19 September, for one night only, Spiral Tribe @sp23official returns to London after all these years, in the city where their influence left one of its deepest marks throughout the 1990s and far beyond.

One night dedicated to the sound, the people and the DIY spirit that continues to inspire underground culture today.
