Bleep was the hype par excellence at the beginning of the techno movement in 1990-91. Bleep -- inspired by the beeping sound of small toy robots -- stood for a phase of good mood and sounds that had never existed before. LFO with their groundbreaking track of the same name and Tricky Disco were two protagonists of those happy days. More than 30 years later, Jürgen Laarmann (editor of the legendary Frontpage Magazine 89-97, promoter of Love Parade and Mayday 91-97, Bash Records 91-94) had the thought that nothing is missing in current electronic dance music as much as bleep. The idea came about when discussing how to create a soundtrack for the art and techno hype of the day and the crypto art moving currenting stirring up the art market. The comeback of bleeps in a new guise is surely a tried-and-true remedy: the Bleep Gigaverse makes the blockchain shake. With his old friend and Bash Records buddy Mijk van Dijk, Laarmann developed the "NFT" anthem with the striking Fazer bullet intro and a fat 2022 bleep that has been extensively tested on post-Corona dancefloors. Club legend Justus Köhncke (Whirlpool Productions among others) himself a big Bleep fan and Laarmann's neighbor, contributed a house mix. Most recently, they managed to bring the great Michael Wells -- the Godfather of Bleep into the Bleep Gigaverse. He contributes as Tricky Disco with all new bleeps and also with a hardstyle mix, so the EP offers a spectrum with really different mixes.
