Our Common Past, Our Common Future

Originally issued in 1996 and now re-pressed for the first time by A.R.X. and Krisis Publishing, Pressure of Speech’s ‘Our Common Past, Our Common Future’ remains one of the best-kept secrets of 1990s British electronica. Founded by Mickey Mann, together with fellow explorers Luke Losey and DJ Stika, their elusive second album is an obsidian relic of screwed ambient techno, mutant breakbeat and hypnotic radical sounds from the UK’s post-rave underground.
