Bleep.com are now taking orders for Hyperdub‘s 5th anniversary releases, grouped under the title of 5.
The focal point of 5 is a double-CD comprised of one disc compiling the label’s past highlights, and one of freshly composed material contributed by Hyperdub artists and associates. A series of five 12" EPs in special sleeves featuring a selection of the new tracks will be issued, one per week, leading up to the release of the CD.
The full details, track-listing (copied below) and audio previews of all the five 12" EPs are now available here. We’re particularly liking the sound of Martyn’s teched-out garage roller ‘Mega Drive Generation’…
