Carl Cox
DJ Carl Cox has announced that he will re-launch his defunct record label, Intec Records, as Intec Digital in January, with its first release being Cox's new artist album.
The original Intec launched in 1999, making its name as a ground-breaking techno label, releasing records by the likes of Marco Bailey, Preach, Sebastien Leger, Valentino Kanzyani, Trevor Rockcliffe and Bryan Zentz, before closing its doors in 2006. The label's 50th and final release featured two Carl Cox productions - 'Spoon' and 'K'Pasa' - the former a tribute to the late Mark Spoon (of Jam And Spoon), who died in January of that year.
Speaking about its new incarnation, Cox told CMU: "It's a whole new fresh start. The original Intec stood for something, very much of the time, but we're bringing it back, we're updating it, but with the same team of people, the same passion for new music and the same philosophy. I hadn't signed anything on Intec for three years, but people were still sending me their records. I'm all about new music, so I've been playing these tracks in my sets, but I wasn't putting them out, which was a shame. Lots of stuff was lost amongst all the other music and it was frustrating that I couldn't get behind them. I'm so pleased to be backing this music again. By signing to Intec Digital you get me behind your music, and with my radio station and my recognition, it's a good place to be".
On the subject of his new album, he said: "I started on this album over two years ago, but I just didn't have the time to work on in until recently. As soon as we finished at [Ibiza club] Space this year, I threw myself into the studio to finish it. It's the most forward thinking album I've ever made. I've missed making music a lot and I'm looking forward to finally getting it out there".
