Timedance is delivering its five-year compilation, 'Sharpen, Moving'

It features tracks from some of Timedance’s closest affiliates over the years

Timedance this week announced the release of ‘Sharpen, Moving’, a compilation LP celebrating five years of the Bristol label. It will be released on November 27.

A birthday compilation has long been in the works, and follows a run of birthday parties that Timedance threw all around the UK back in February and March this year.

The compilation features contributions from label boss Batu (pictured), Akiko Haruna, Peter Van Hoesen, Happa, Ploy, Bruce and Metrist, among others.

Altogether, the compilation demonstrates how instrumental Timedance has been over its five years of running in pushing the UK techno scene forwards, testing the boundaries of the genre and always proving a fertile breeding ground for innovation.
