Delta Funktionen

After four years of techno EPs for Delsin and Ann Aimee, Niels Luinenburg has finished his debut full length. Though still very much couched in techno, the album sees Dutchman Delta explore plenty of new sonic territory. It's adventurous, basically, and is an album that doesn't loose itself in intricate sound design, but instead pairs a raw, machine made aesthetic with plenty of real human soul and palpable earthly emotion. 'Traces is about my long time research into electronic music. It covers tracks that make reference to my favourite subgenres within electronic music: techno, house, electro and (Italo)-disco. There was no specific idea behind it because the album contains tracks made over a long time. Some are 3 years old, others were made this year, but in the end I think it sounds like a coherent piece of work.'
