Welcome to a brand new chapter of Deep Electronics. The serie brings you a diversity into the abyss of deep electronic music. I can finally present your the 400th chapter of the Deep Electronics serie and released in the year that Deep Electronics celebrates it's 10 years anniversay. For this occassion Octal Industries has created a almost 90 minutes mixtape. I am honoured to have Octal Industries on the channel for this chapter. So enjoy! I would like to thank all artists that been a part of this serie. About: Octal Industries Is the solo project of Jónas Thor Gudmundsson. The project was originally founded in 2003 by Jonas and Mike Sickinger, the founder of the Octal label. The Debut release of their collaboration was the Automatik EP on the Transistor Rhythm Output. Couple of years later they joined their friend Deep Chord For a shared 12“ release, which today is quite a valuable gem for dub techno lovers. The three of them joined hands together later that year to create a 3x12“ release under the pseudonym Spectral Network. The release was limited (111 copies) and was considered one of the most interesting 12“ releases that year by many critics. After the release of the Spectral Network eps the duo went for hiatus as other projects took over, also as opportunities for musical collaborations became harder as the Atlantic Ocean divides them. Jonas continued working on other projects as Ruxpin–producing numerous releases along the way. In 2011 the duo was asked by the French independent label Entropy Records to do some releases. As Michael was unable to participate, Jonas went on solo and worked on a full-length release, which later became Meeting of the Waves LP. Another remix followed for G.R.I.T.which was hailed by dubtechnoblog.com as the best remix of the year 2012. In more recent years, Octal Industries has been working on numerous collaborations with artists such as fellow Icelander OHM-and fruits of their work have been released on labels such as Thule Records, Rawax, Luck of Access, All In Records and many more. Octal Industries also released works independently in 2019 an EP entitled Julia Sets on Kontakt Records, which featured a remix from the Detroit legend Mike Huckaby–and his second full-length album Our Seasons ,which was released on Vertex in December 2019. In 2023 saw the release of a full-length album with his frequent collaborator OHM. The album is entitled Northwest Passage and was released by Lempuyang in September the same year. Octal Industries, although being Icelandic in origin, works and resides in Tallinn,Estonia. Tracklist: 01. Rod Modell - AI35 Side C 02. NonniMal - Ronja 03. Cold - Goosebumps 04.
