Nexus 21 was a British techno duo from Stafford, England formed in 1989, by Mark Archer and Chris Peat, who would go on to become Altern 8.[1]
Discography
The group were signed to the Blue Chip record label, under which they released:
- (Still) Life Keeps Moving: a vocal techno tune, today regarded as an early classic.[according to whom?]
- The Rhythm Of Life: LP strongly influenced by Detroit techno with acid house, electro and breakbeats elements.
A second album was ready in late 1991, but due to sample clearance problems, the LP never materialised. A small edition of white labels of I Know We Can Make It / Sychologic PSP was released, which showcased a bigger hardcore influence.
When Blue Chip folded, the duo moved to Network Records, releasing:
- Another Night
- The Detroit remixes
After the release of Overload (EP), as Altern 8, the pair released the following as Nexus 21:
- Self Hypnosis: a deep techno contribution to the Bio Rhythm compilation, a remix of which appeared on the Progressive Logic EP, alongside Together (from Bio Rhythm 2) and two tunes from The Rhythm Of Life, one remixed.
