  • Richie Hawtin's 1996 minimal series Concept 1 will be available as a digital release for the first time next month. Concept 1 was a subscription series beginning in late 1995 which featured limited-edition monthly 12-inch releases. 25 years after the project was originally released, the entire series will be out on Bandcamp for one month, where both individual tracks and the entire set will be up for grabs (the latter comes with an exclusive bonus track). The initial release is set to land via Hawtin's From Our Minds Bandcamp on January 1st, and will be followed by a triple vinyl release and a final release on all streaming sites later on. Previously, the series was reissued in 2007 as a limited-edition double-CD set. "This release marked a real shift in my production style in 1996, and was the start of a significant chapter in my recording career. Everything was handled independently— from design to distribution to a subscription service to accompany it—so releasing this with Bandcamp now really captures that spirit of the landscape back in the mid-'90s," Hawtin says. "Concept 1 was recorded in isolation at a time when I was not allowed to enter the USA and with everything going on in the world at this moment, it felt like the right time to finally release this project to a larger audience."
