Pole announces new 1 2 3 box set

Pole, aka German producer Stefan Betke, has announced a new box set compiling his early trio of releases, 1, 2 and 3. On April 24, Mute will release the box, simply titled 1 2 3, which will find the three albums released on vinyl for the first time in nearly two decades. The vinyl edition also includes the 1998 Raum EP as a bonus.

Betke says in a statement, “A common factor in all the releases was that they all originated in a kind of dub continuum. Melodies have never been my motivation – they were always more peripheral. But across those albums, the reverbs and the bass lines were always related and interlinked with each other. By working that way, I didn’t feel as if I was under any artificial pressure, and I could allow things to end loosely in order to continue my work.”
