Genuinely saddened to hear of the demise of Berlin’s
Equinox records, the label run by
DJ Scientist who we featured with his
‘Soviet Solid Steel’ mix earlier in the year on the radio show. Not only has it produced some great music from the likes of
Deckard, David Vangel, DJ Scientist himself and of course
2econd Class Citizen, whom I collaborated with on my last record. But it has consistently gone way above and beyond with the artwork, formats and packaging, creating an instantly recognisable look with heavy use of its signature brown card amongst the mainly black and white design work. I’m a sucker for circular designs and Equinox was the king of the design mandala with always inventive typography treading a perfect line between brand new and vintage.
