Gaza - Plastic Tics
We are Tribak, a label from Berlin that is focused on mutant sounds that is rooted in concrete and sand. The label is managed and curated by Tropikal Camel. The label is divided into series, each one has a unique focus.
We would love to present TimeClapse, spotlighting the golden era of bedroom producers from 1999-2006 in West Jerusalem. And our next one is a secret masterpiece!
We’re excited to announce our second release in our reissue series: Playback by Gaza, originally released on Fact Records in 2002.Gaza, formed in 1997 by Alon Ovnat and Yayehe S. Mehari, emerged from the vibrant Electronic Front Collective. Their unique sound blends hip-hop, dub, IDM, and electro, creating a captivating fusion that stands out in the electronic music scene.Playback, first released by Israel's pioneering DIY label Fact Records, was crafted at a time when electronic music thrived in living rooms. The album showcases a dynamic range of tracks, from the energetic "Speedy Jam" to the glitchy "Plastic Ticks," the groovy "Visetor," and the uplifting "U&I."This reissue is a tribute to DJ Yayehe, who sadly passed away in 2021. We are dedicated to preserving his legacy by reissuing all his works, including unreleased material.
