In the early 2000s, Belgium had almost no answer to what was brewing in London, the dark, hypnotic intersection of techno and house soul that Terry Francis, Nathan Coles and Mr. C were shaping at nights like Wiggle and The End. Fred Nasen (A&R Visitor Records) fell in love instantly. While working as an import manager at N.E.W.S. Records, he had a front-row seat to the records coming out of that scene, and the conviction that someone in the Benelux needed to do something about it. With Kozzmozz as one of the few local parties willing to back the sound at their parties & N.E.W.S Records giving Fred carte blanche,, Visitor Records was born and lasted for around 41 releases till 2006.

Now almost 25 years later, these 5 vinyl samplers withmuch sought-after tracks from the label are available - never repressed since their original release.

VISITOR2501 kicks off the series with three Fred Nasen productions made with longtime collaborator Dimitri De Wever. 'Landcruising' and 'Static' laid the blueprint early on: tight, groove-driven and built around the kind of melodic basslines that defined the label's sound. On the flip, 'Sunday Visitor (A Visit From The Mingers)' - a remix from The Mingers, the UK tech house alias of producers Mike Parsons and Timmy Stuart, stretches out to nearly eight minutes of peak-time hypnosis, and remains one of the most sought-after cuts from the Visitor back catalogue.
