Hardcore techno producer t+pazolite turns sample archaeology into a party trick on Jack-in-the-VOX, released October 2 as an advance single from HARDCORE SYNDROME 20. His anniversary offering packs vocal samples spanning the series’ previous 19 instalments into one track—a particularly devious listening exam for anyone who alphabetizes their TANO*C collection.
The title neatly suggests a jack-in-the-box rebuilt from voices: open the lid and the back catalogue starts shouting. Illustrator 寺田てら (Terada Tera) supplies the artwork, pairing the producer’s musical memory bank with a distinctive visual collaborator. For a musician known for feeding wildly different genres into his hardcore machinery, this time the raw material includes the machinery’s own history. Nostalgia, apparently, comes with a retrigger button.
