If youre looking for the definitive compilation of Birmingham techno, and a cross section of Downwards early contributions to the worldwide techno and minimal scene, then look no further. Including early Surgeon classics Electric chicken and Argon (both favourites with Jeff Mills, Dave Clarke and countless others, and long deleted) as well as Regiss massive Ital, not to mention groundbreaking minimal masterpieces from Female, this is top quality gear from beginning to end. Available on an initial limited clear vinyl pressing, and fully re mastered by the ridiculously talented Matt Colton at Alchemy Studios, these tracks laid the groundwork for a generation of techno producers.
