Ambient techno compilation mixtape released in January 2022 by German techno writer LEN FAKI's label FIGURE.

14 people including Max Cooper, Laraaji, KMRU and Album Leaf participated.

-----------------------------

Tape edition of 100.

Figure: Figure:

"A year after its first edition, the Open Space series returns in order to keep exploring what ambi-ent music might mean these days.

A breadth of fresh artists, some new to the label and others renowned for their more dance-centric works, the compilation aims to give each artist their creative freedom to explore the space.

Techno producers such as Arthur Robert or label head Len Faki himself keep the beats present but this time focus on evoking states of introspection rather than the shuffle of dancefloors.
On the other end of the spectrum, we find seasoned multi-instrumentalist Laraaji, who has been crafting deeply meditative soundscapes since the 80's. Using the special opportunity, the label reaches outside its usual sphere, inviting artists like the modular synth expert Jeremy Wentorth or Jimmy LaValle's band project The Album Leaf. All while still featuring some well known veteran producers the likes of John Beltran or Exos.

No matter their respective scene or background, all artists are using their unique approach to display something deeply emotional. Be it the warm, expansive electro of Future Beat Alliance or a bubbly cosmic arp-ride by Hamburg Duo Can Love Be Synth.

Truly living up to its name, the Open Space series aims to open up possibilities for artists to freely pursue their creativity in a completely undefined area, a space for exploration and connection.'
