@octalindustries is the solo project of J\xf3nas Thor Gudmundsson. The project was originally founded in 2003 by Jonas and Mike Sickinger, the founder of the Octal label. The debut release of their collaboration was the Automatik EP on the Transistor Rhythm output. Couple of years later they joined their friend Deep Chord for a shared 12\u201c release, which today is a quite a valuable gem for dub techno lovers. The three of them joined hands together later that year to create a 3x12\u201c release undir the pseudonym Spectral Network. The release was quite limited (111 copies) and was considered one of the most interesting 12\u201c releases that year by many critics. \nAfter the release of the Spectral Network eps the duo went for hiatus as other projects took over, also as opportunity for musical collaborations became harder as the Atlantic Ocean divides them. Jonas continued working on other projects as @ruxpin \u2013 producing numerous releases along the way. \nIn 2011 the duo was asked by the French independent label @entropy-records to do some releases. As Michael was unable to participate, Jonas went on solo and worked on a full-length release, which later became Meeting of the Waves LP. Another remix followed for G.R.I.T. which was hailed by dubtechnoblog.com as the best remix of the year 2012. \nIn more recent years, Octal Industries has been working on numerous collaborations with artists such as fellow Icelander @ohm-599575574 - and fruits of their work has been released on labels such as @thule-records, Rawax, @luckofaccess, @allinnrecords and many more. \nOctal Industries also released works independently in 2019 an EP entitled Julia Sets on @kontaktrecordscph, which featured a remix from the Detroit legend @mikehuckaby \u2013 and his second full-length album Our Seasons, which was released on Vertex in December 2019. \nOctal Industries, although being Icelandic in origin, works and resides in Tallinn, Estonia. \nStay Rave with #R13!\nTracklist:\n01 Federsen - Ghanja Dub (Vade Mecum)\n02 Yotam Avni - Avka (Stroboscopic Artefacts)\n03 Waage - XoS27 (Unreleased)\n04 Octal Industries - Spectrum (Unreleased)\n05 Exos - Lag11 Minifunk (Unreleased)\n06 NonniMal - Skj\u0443la (Thule Records)\n07 Altitude - Simplicity (Obscure Components)\n08 Malin Genie & Selidos - Come The Morning (Berg Audio)\n09 Traumer - Burning (Berg Audio)\n10 Ohm & Octal Industries - Drama Chord (Exos Remix) (Rawax)\n11 Ozy - Pull The Strings (Force Inc)\n12 Lakefkt - Oceania (Ohm Series 003)\n13 Oculus - Morph (AE Recordings)\n14 Ohm & Octal Industries - Hobart (Unreleased)\n15 Exos - Attfalt (Octal Industries Remix)\n16 Oxun - Forward (Unreleased)\n17 NonniMal - Ronja (Thule Records)\n18 Exos - Svali (Waage Remix) (Unreleased)\n19 Andre Kronert - Triton (Berg Audio)\n20 Octal Industries - Wildfire (Kontakt)
