Juan Atkins announces Metroplex reissues

Classic techno cuts will be available for the first time in years

Juan Atkins has announced a slew of reissues of classic Detroit techno from his Metroplex label.

Coming off of the heels of the announcement of ‘Transport’ with dub techno pioneer Moritz von Oswald, techno inventor Juan Atkins has initiated the “first back catalogue repress” for Metroplex. This campaign will see the repressing of three Model 500 records: ‘Night Drive’, ‘Sound of Stereo’ and ‘The Chase’. Robert Hood’s own side project The Vision will be made available as well.

The first batch of reissues will be released in April on CD, vinyl and digital formats.
