collector is the solo project of jason campbell who resides in newcastle, australia. forced extraction is his first release for beat concern following an lp on the melbourne-based drawing heat, and tapes for seminal labels, night people and clan destine records. campbell has honed his unique take on experimental techno over the last few years by building compositions with all analogue hardware and modular synthesis. forced extraction sees collector at his most incisive, carving out four pummelling tracks across the 12inch. piercing feedback, foreboding synth movements and bass drones are anchored by rigid drum programming with an attention to heavy industrial rhythms. an exciting peek into the coal-face of underground australian electronics
