The debut release of Collective Direction explores the incredibly broad and fascinating variety of work of Tasti Box, operating in San Francisco in the early 90’s. 
 
This previously unreleased album, made in the early 90’s, captures the spirit of the San Francisco free party scene that exploded around that time. DJ Harvey, Doc Martin, the Hardkiss Brothers, the Wicked Crew and a host of international guests played at legendary all-night parties at locations such as under the Golden Gate Bridge, on huge custom-built sound systems. Helping to define not only the West Coast scene but also influencing the rest of the country throughout that decade. The cultural impact of this moment in time continues to inspire today’s dance music landscape. 
 
Opening on the delicate and melodic ambient tracks Mim and Quetzcal, the B side moves on to explores the uniqueness of the signature Tasti Box sound with the triptych of Desire, U Can Fly and Box, a trippy journey melting influences from downtempo, breakbeat, house, experimental and techno. The C side opens with the killer psychedelic track Feel It. It is complemented by the balearic-infused Story of O and bleepy and esoteric Electrons. On the D side, some Daisy Glow tracks, still showing late Tasti Box influence, close the musical journey with four tracks of joyful and melodic house music. 
 
It’s a compilation for music collectors and lovers. The vinyl includes a limited edition A4 design of the artwork cover and an exclusive conversation with the artists, delving deeper into their creative process and the human stories behind the magic of their sound. Do not miss!
