Prefab EP
23-Jul-2010See The Road return with a new EP of raw late night abandon. The secretive Nottingham techno collective have hit hard with three more slabs of electronic future music. Prefab EP is further strengthened by a wonderfully off-kilter remix by fellow Nottinghamite, wrong-house guru Spandex from the respected Hand On The Plow crew.
The EP has been well received with praise coming from Claude Young, 2562, Jolka and more as well as Radio Play from Cian O Ciobhain at RTE RTNAG and a review in iDJ magazine.
Available 26/7/2010 from all major digital retailers.
BBC 6 Music & Detached
18-May-2010Last Wednesday Tom Ravenscroft was nice enough to play Pondora on BBC 6 Music whilst standing in for Gideon Coe. We've been a bit slow on the uptake but if you're quick you can still listen to the show here. Thanks Tom, you may have got the artist and title the wrong way round but you played the full track so it's all good!
5th June Mark and Ally are taking a trip up the M1 to leeds and playing Detached at Beaverworks. For those that don't know Detached is probably Leeds best Techno nights with past guests including Surgeon, Oscar Mulero & Peter Van Hoesen. This month Dualtek(Takaaki Itoh & Go Hiyama) and Forward Stratergy Group are heading up the main room while See The Road join the rest of the Resonant Alliance to take care of business in room 2. If you make it down be sure to say hello.

Mini-Mix
6-Mar-2010Well as the release of Pondora EP draws closer interest grows with Chicago House legend Robert Owens now supporting the release. To keep you going to the 22/3 you can stream a mix featuring tracks from the forthcoming EP as well as other unreleased tracks below or direct from Soundcloud .
Pondora EP
28-Feb-2010Well, it's been a long time coming - but Pondora EP goes on sale on 22nd March in all major digital retailers. With its driving rhythm and piano refrain, the title track Pondora is at home on most dance floors. PPP is a more minimal affair while the dank, night-time march of Liven suits harder times. Already attracting attention from DJs such as Claude Young, John Selway and Terrence Dixon, this is definitely one not to miss.
Atomic Jam
28-Jan-2010See the Road are DJ-ing at Atomic Jam on the 20th March. Also in their room, from Den Haag Novamen AKA Mr Pauli and DJ Overdose. Two legends of the Dutch electro scene, with links to I-F and releases on the seminal labels Viewlexx, Murder Capital and Bunker, the pair will be performing live followed by DJ Overdose dropping an old-skool electro set. Ally is especially looking forward to practicing his Dutch :) Also joining them is Peter Mangalore longtime friend of See the Road and Manchester's hardest working bedroom DJ 2009. The main room doesn't look too bad either. Hope to see you there.

Happy New Year
6-Jan-2010The new year parties are now over for another twelve months - hopefully everyone has almost recovered and this week has not been too painful for you all ;)
2009 was a great year of behind the scenes planning and preparation for the label, with our tracks attracting quite a bit of interest and we are now ready to move forward in 2010 with some releases.
Pondora was recently featured on Red Rack'em's Best of 2009 Podcast and tipped as one to watch for 2010. Danny has been playing quite a few of our tracks over the year and we will be appearing on his show later on in the year for a See The Road special.
Ally has been appearing regularly at Atomic Jam with the Resonant Alliance crew and he will be joined by Mark Jacobs for a back to back set at the legendary Birmingham techno clubs next event. And finally, the website is now up and running, with additional features and updates coming soon.
