CRAMMED ARCHIVES 3 - RARE SSR ELECTRONICA 1994-01
Nu Era - Stars EP
Avant-drum’n’bass wizards 4hero Marc Mac and Dego McFarlane were devoted fans of classic Detroit techno, and expressed their love via the Nu Era side project.
Released on SSR in 1995, the lovely Stars EP was acclaimed by the UK media:
Drifts intro previously uncharted orbits of deep dreamy astro-funk (i-D)
Drum ’n’ bass experimentalists 4hero put on their Detroit secret identities and voyage out to save techno… the boys continue to push back all musical boundaries (Mixmag)
Purist to the max and all the better for it… leans towards the deeper, more esoteric side of electronica… enlightening… sublime (Muzik)

The Crammed Electronic Archives series
As the Crammed Discs label turns 43, we’re highlighting certain folds of our catalogue which have now somewhat receded into the shade. Aside from the reactivated Made To Measure composers’ series, we’re digging into electronic music trends we explored during the ’80s and ‘90s by digitally releasing around 250 tracks which only ever came out on vinyl (or on now-deleted CDs). These digital reissues are being rolled out over a couple of years, in several phases, each consisting of a compilation plus several related EPs:
Phase 1: Rare SSR Electronica 1988-94 (Crammed Archives 1) - out now
Phase 2: Rare Global Pop 1980s (Crammed Archives 2) - out now
Phase 3: Rare Electronica 1994-01 (Crammed Archives 3) - in progress
Phase 4: Rare Electronica B-sides 1988-97 (Crammed Archives 4): soon
