1605 GrooveSector – A New Project by Umek

Umek has launched a brand-new sub-label called 1605 GrooveSector.

This new project is part of his label 1605 and is dedicated to hardgroove and raw techno sounds.

At the end of February, Umek introduced 1605 GrooveSector with a special EP titled "Mechanically Intensive". With this release, he also revived his old alter-ego, Polyvinyl.

Back in the late 90s, Umek used the name Polyvinyl to release hardgroove tracks on the ABsense label. Later, he continued his journey through various projects, including the legendary label Recycled Loops, which he started in 1999 with Valentino Kanzyani.

With 1605 GrooveSector, Umek is bringing back the energy of classic hardgroove techno, offering fans a fresh and powerful sound.

Stay tuned for more exciting releases from this new sub-label!
