Holland's answer to Hard Wax? Europe's answer to Submerge? The best way to describe the contribution of Amsterdam's Rush Hour store and label to the electronic music scene over the past 13 years is probably just to point out that they've always trodden their own path. From humble beginnings selling records out of a student apartment, to treks around the globe hunting down undiscovered gems, Rush Hour have made a massive contribution to the promotion of artists from both their local scene and from further afield. Simultaneously promoting young talent while building connections with House and Techno's old-guard, the last 6 months alone has seen them reissue Virgo's pantheon-residing Virgo LP, two long sought-after 12s from Rick Wilhite, as well as a stream of consistently essential releases from the likes of Tom Trago, Aardvarck, and Nebraska.
We recently caught up with label boss Christiaan for a chat about Rush Hour's past present and future and he also kindly provided us with a mix of Trax classics and unclassics for your enjoyment, which you can grab below the interview
