Never Been is the first collaborative release by Loradeniz and Interstellar Funk, who produced the EP at a Volkshotel artist residency in Amsterdam, in 2021. The record examines the interplay of synthetic melodies and Loradeniz’s vocals, which are underpinned by meticulously crafted rhythms. Steeped in melancholy, many of the tracks on Never Been evoke the essence of departure, complex emotions and fading memories.

U-TRAX sublabel Phoq U Phonogrammen was created for raw acid and techno and Fanon Flowers fitted that bill perfectly. His debut as a recording artist was also the first release on Phoq U in 1995.The Sleeper EP is critically acclaimed by those who know, with tracks like Flim Flam that will get everybody bouncing. The real gem is hidden on the B-side though, where Serinity lives, a completely mental and beautiful tripping techno jam. The term "vintage techno" couldn't be explained better than with this release.Fanon Flowers had been dissed by a record company, a so-called 'underground' label from south of Detroit even before he ended up with Phoq U. As a student he lived in Ypsilanti nearby Detroit, but he is from Kalamazoo originally, the hometown of Jay Denham, the genius responsible for one of the best techno 12"-es ever made: Fade II Black on Derrick May's Fragile Records. Inspired by Jay, he picked up producing tracks himself and in 1992, and made some raw, lo-fi analog 909/101-tracks.Original release date: February 1995.
