Optimo (Espacio) - Dark Was The Night
Named after the Blind Willie Johnson track 'Dark Was The Night, Cold Was The Ground' which was one of the 27 songs included on the Golden Voyager Records which were aboard the Voyager spacecraft launched in 1977. The songs on these phonograph records were selected to portray the diversity of life and culture on Earth. The sixth official dj mix from Optimo features dark sounds that covers artists like Berlin's dark techno newcomer Recondite, native Detroit techno misfit Terrence Dixon, New York City minimal wave veterans Jeff and Jayne Hudson, or the late seventies Scotish punk band The Freeze.
