- Mustafa Ali's hard-to-find UK techno album will be re-released by the Dutch label.
Rush Hour Recordings have announced a forthcoming reissue of N.A.D.'s 1990 album Dawn Of A New Age.
The LP, which was first released on English label BPM, is a mix of early house, electro and techno. It currently fetches a tidy sum on Discogs and is probably best known for the track "Distant Drums," which was also released as a 12-inch single in 1989. The album is the latest in a long line of retrospectives released by the Amsterdam-based label: in 2012 they celebrated the work of The Burrell Brothers, Dream 2 Science and Elbee Bad, and in previous years the likes of Virgo, Anthony "Shake" Shakir and Gene Hunt have seen their early work dusted down and reissued. The label also has a Ron Hardy retrospective in the offing, having released a sampler 12-inch at the tail end of 2012.
A release date for Dawn Of A New Age—which features a number of tracks that didn't appear on the original release—is yet to be set, but you can stream snippets of the album over on the Rush Hour website.
