After closing the influential chapter of Involve Records, Regal returns witha brand new singletitled ‘Avalanche’–a powerful statement marking the launch of his brand-new imprintBackspinRecords. With this inaugural release, Regal sets the tone for the label’s vision: a bold revivaland reimagining of early2000s Hardgroove Techno.
Avalanche is a high-impact club weapon, steeped in the groove-heavy DNA of techno’s goldenera. Pounding rhythms, rolling basslines and crisp Latin-infused percussion lock into ahypnotic loop, while Regal masterfully layers tension and release with sharpstabs and vocalfragments. It’s a sound that feels both raw and refined–a modern take on the era that firstignited his love for techno.
Backspin is Regal’s sonic time machine, a return to roots that’s anything but nostalgic. Inspiredby the gritty funk of labels like Primate, Theory and Pornographic and artists such as Ben Simsand Michael Burkat, the label picks up where Involve left off. While Involve redefined 90's Acidand Trance-infused techno in the 2010s, Backspin looks forward by spinning the clock backto the 2000's
