  • Steven Tang will release his debut album, Disonnect To Connect, on Smallville Records in July. Tang is one of electronic music's more unassuming characters, with a steady trickle of 12-inches dating back to 1998 under his real name and as Obsolete Music Technology. The US producer says he first had the idea to release an LP "around 1999 or 2000," when he made three tracks that appear on Disconnect To Connect: "Interstice," "It's Perceived As Sound," and "Brink Of Dawn." "When those tracks were done, I felt they were better suited for an album release because I experimented outside of the typical 4/4 dance track," Tang explains. "But putting an album out during that time would not have garnished the impact that I wanted, since I was still a relatively unknown artist. So I put the tracks aside. Over the past decade, I worked on many more 12-inch singles to get my name out there, while still working on tracks that I thought would suit the album." Disonnect To Connect will see release through Hamburg label Smallville, which has previously put out albums from Move D & Benjamin Brunn, Christopher Rau, Moomin and label bosses Smallpeople. Tracklist 01. Interstice 02. Disconnect To Connect 03. Some Solace 04. Eternal 05. Heat Burst 06. It's Perceived As Sound 07. Sunspot 08. Potential Light 09. Brink Of Dawn Smallville will release Disonnect To Connect in July, 2013.
