  • Bristol-based duo Emptyset have put together a collection of their early works, entitled Trace: 2005-2009. Emptyset is Paul Purgas and James Ginzburg, or Ginz, one of the main forces behind the Bristol studio and umbrella label Multiverse. Over the past few years they've forged a sound that blends elements of bass music, drone and experimental techno, but Traces shows a different sensibility: here the harsh frequencies and lurching rhythms are traded for sleek and club-friendly 4/4 beats. All of the tracks are previously released, mostly on the duo's first string of EPs. The collection will come out on Caravan, one of the numerous labels associated with Multiverse. Trace 01. Acuphase 02. Displacement Activity 03. Isokon 04. Seclusion 05. Endoxa 06. Doxa 07. Episteme 08. Demian Caravan will release Trace: 2005-2009 on June 6th, 2012.
