Private Trance Reissues























Adrian Marcator a.k.a. Marcator a.k.a. Trance released a couple of beautiful LPs in the late 70s and early 80s (see his 2nd above). One day when I visited him, he showed me his self produced & "private press" tapes that followed his LPs. Being a fan of ambient synthesizer music these tapes gained holy grail status in my book within minutes. We are now thinking about reissuing a selection of songs from these tapes on LP and I'd be really happy about your feedback.

You'll find the preselection of tracks here

Thanks for listening. Cheers, Basso

I heard some of his tracks ('Maithuna' & 'Won't You Come With Me') on a mix some time ago. Really deep stuff!

I'd definitely buy some more productions of this guy! On vinyl, of course. ;)

basso said...

That was probably a Jonny5 mix....
Danke Dennis!

Sooor said...

Yeah, right. They are on Jonny5's Ice Flow Mix. Nice mix.

I'll listen to the unreleased tracks that you uploaded on soundcloud. Bet they'll be killer!

I really like those tunes - I'd not only buy a CD of the songs, I'd play them in my ambient and chilled sets. Really lovely stuff :-)de

This is eye-opening stuff! The German Eno, indeed. I'd be interested in hearing/buying the original albums, too. Reissue!

basso said...

@ Chris: I take your word ; )
@ Nick: Unsure if there'll be a CD, but LPs for sure!
@ Crash: the original albums only exist on tape and have been poduced in ultralimited quantities.....

Thanks to all of you!
