Rebekah announces new compilation of lockdown production challenge tracks
Rebekah’s Elements label is putting out a new compilation featuring tracks made by a number of techno producers during lockdown.
The 10-track ‘X Compilation’ has its origins in the ’10×10 Production Challenge’, which Rebekah curated in 2020. It saw her set daily creative objectives for producers to work outside of their comfort zones and deliver a finished arrangement each day.
‘X Compilation’ is made up of music made from that process, with Rebekah contributing a track herself, in addition to cuts by the likes of unperson, Vera Grace and Tess. Tracks cover a range from dancefloor-focused techno to more experimental electronic music.
In a statement about the release, Rebekah said: “I am really honoured to present this compilation as an insight to what was achieved within the 10×10 creative challenge. Connecting once more to music and fellow producers in this way brought much-needed light within a period of uncertainty in the scene and the world as a whole as we fought our way through the pandemic.”
Elements will release ‘X Compilation’ on 24th June.
Last year, Rebekah teamed up with DJ Sydney Blu to launch a campaign dedicated to encouraging record labels to improve gender representation on their rosters.
