Ghosts of Techno

Terrific profile of one of my favorite labels in the nebula. I was born and lived in Ann Arbor till I was 10, so it's a special source of pride to see it represented to well.

Big ups to Sam V for the vision to make this sound and aesthetic real and to our own TK Disko for his first production effort. Doin' it REAL big,

and here is the track-listing of the songs you hear in the piece..

Osborne - "Suffer"
Kate Simko - "Dulce (Digital Exclusive)"
Kate Simko - "She Said"
Kate Simko - "Dulce (Digital Exclusive)"
Osborne - "Outta Sight"
Tycho - "Adrift"

nice pod, wish i could get a glimpse of that ghostly stockroom and snatch up some vinyl's. Osborne is one intelligent dude, ace work.

You can also czech out this pod on my blog at

Its great to hear about a label getting American DJ's to go international with their electronic music..

interesting that Kate Simko is so classically trained!

This piece captures the essence of what Current is about in my opinion. This is not your typical mainstream bio of some bloated conglomerate's boy-band product. The pod features stellar electronic music by real people striving to carve out a niche for themselves in a difficult market. I salute Current for airing it.

More like this please!

Loving this

So rad. Amazing doc! Love what Osborn said about making tracks...how its not about what program you use. True. (Ps. I think you should do a followup piece...on JAMES T. COTTON and other harder artists on Ghostly/Spectral ;)

Thanks for shedding some light on one of my favorite enigmatic labels. Awesome! Can't wait to see the UR piece.

nice work! indie and electro merging, yep.

Hey Travis!

Nicely done piece!
Cool and interesting music/ peeps…

Great to hear from you!

Scott Hanson (a.k.a. Tycho, ISO 50) is the fucking greatest artist ever.

nice one!

we need more pods like this on current
this is why i come to this site three times or more a day
thank you

i really dug how the music label stressed that electronic music was not a kind of music but rather a way in which people create music. i went to their website and it was great, it's always fun finding new artists!

i really enjoy this video, its gotten me into a new style of music.

electronic artists unite... and buy my album too :D
