Following a 5-year hiatus Carl Cox’s techno record label Intec Digital has reemerged with a brand-new EP from Carlo Lio and M.I.T.A. titled ‘Chasing Ghosts.’
Originally founded in 1998 by Carl Cox and DJ C1, the then titled Intec Records played host to releases from huge names including Richie Hawtin, Pete Tong, and Paul Oakenfold. Its greatest success came in 2002 with the release of Tomaz and Filterheadz’s techno marvel ‘Sunshine’ which sold 25000 copies. Intec Records ran up until 2006 and then made its return in January 2010 under the new name Intec Digital.
The label has been silent since 2020, but now it’s made its comeback with an explosive EP from Carlo Lio and M.I.T.A. which could be the start of a resurgence for Intec Digital. The ‘Chasing Ghosts’ EP features 3 tracks: ‘Chasing Ghosts’, ‘AFREAKA!’, and ‘The Artist’s Struggle.’ Each offers a unique sound while sticking to the infectious, funky, high energy you expect to see from a release on Intec Digital.
The return of the label is a welcome one which hopefully will continue its return with more groovy releases akin to this excellent opening EP.
