As a fresh new series, the ‘SOLSTICE BLACK COMPILATION’ drew enthusiastic reactions from all over the world with it's first release. Now we see the second installment brought to you by the same compiler, XAVIER MOREL. Focusing on more of the techno style than the previous incarnation, featuring tracks such as PASCAL F.E.O.S.’s remix of the X-DREAM classic ‘Ultratube’; the collaboration of DJ HELL with JOHANNES HEIL, a key personality in German Techno heading the crucial imprint Kanzleramt; the latest tune by THOMAS P. HECKMANN (under the WELT IN SCHERBEN moniker) whose hit ‘Crunch One’ was named “the best techno track” last year. FRONT 242 also made it into this compilation under the alias PL. CODENYS. JOHN SELWAYS’s remix of KOXBOX ‘Woolectrix’ is another example of how this compilation features the artists who represent the techno scene of today. XAVIER himself takes part with his collaboration unit with EAT STATIC called MX EXPERIENCE. This album pushes even further into the crossover trance/techno genre and is likely to attract an even wider audience than the original.
