At long last — We are pleased to announce the official launch of our new vinyl product line from 6ONE6, Distributed exclusively by Prime Direct Distribution (London – Manchester). One Peoples start the madness with Säure, featuring remixes from Orlando Voorn, and Grimes Adhesif (6ONE6-01).
Prime Direct Distribution, is an online resource for dance music wholesalers, record stores, online shops, DJ’s and enthusiasts across the globe. Prime Direct (PDD) was established in March 2003 as a specialist import company. Guided by the experienced and talented Ministry of Sound spinner, Spencer Broughton, the company has quietly and steadily grown into one of the UK’s leading supplier of upfront records, with many a hot record starting life on the mean streets of South London. Despite the many challenges facing the industry in recent times, Prime Direct has steadfastly kept faith in the 12” vinyl format, the very foundation of club culture today. It is fair to say that we have come a long way since our inception, but we have always been guided of a shared vision of how music distribution should be done. There have been many challenges in that time, with retailers having to adapt quickly to those changes in order to survive. From questions posed by the internet, to now the debates surrounding new formats, we have undoubtedly entered a new age for music distribution.
UK’s leading supplier of upfront records -
Central to everything is of course the music, and we have worked hard to develop the roster of artists and labels to reflect that. We handle the distribution exclusively throughout the world for some of the biggest and best names on the dance music scene; check the labels section for a run down. But we are not simply about the big names; some of the brightest hopes for tomorrow can be found honing their craft, comfortably mingling with the established acts. We are interested in broadening the range of styles we distribute, to encompass a wider choice of genres, as well as the increasing the formats these are delivered on. After all, diversity is what has kept the spirit of house music alive and well two decades on. PDD has extensive reach across the UK, servicing record stores country-wide, encompassing the chain stores, key specialists and independent retailers. Internationally, our tentacles can be found in all the major export territories. Wherever you are in the world, stores and wholesalers are welcome to join the dots with us, see the accounts section for further details on opening an account. The site is regularly updated with new release product and news from PDD HQ. We have simplified the layout, so getting around the new releases and finding what you want is easier.
Available in stores June 14th

Russ Denman (M76) front man to the popular Robotic Soul broadcast on Brighton’s Radio Reverb 97.2FM spins that deep underground soulful music that is true to the roots of Detroit techno. Techno as it used to be and still is if you know where to look. Today the vast majority of techno played in clubs has lost it’s soul. Much of what is produced under the banner of techno no longer has the essential elements that created the tunes that filled the clubs back in the day. Robotic Soul brings Brighton something a little bit more than the usual click shit that is played in clubs the world over. Techno’s heart still beats, just look at labels like Delsin, Cache and Subject Detroit for proof of that. In the side wings a small but growing number are producing expressive soulful dance music and I hope that Robotic Soul will bring a little bit of that into the people of Brighton’s lives.
“Basic stripped down, raw sound. Just drums, basslines and funky grooves and only what’s essential. Only what is essential to make people move” *
Take a look around? Techno has been hijacked by minimal. For too long clubland has been besieged by the massed forces of minimal techno and its got to stop. Such trends have seen the demise of the soul infused techno that typified the original Detroit imprint. Robotic Soul is dedicated to moving in another direction, forging new paths in the music without losing sight of the spirit of its inception.
“Something was missing – an element…in what we know as techno. It sounded great from a production point of standpoint, but there was a ‘jack’ element in the old structure. People would complain that there’s no funk, no feeling in techno anymore, and the easy escape is to put a vocalist and some piano on top to fill the emotional gap. I thought it was time for a return to the original underground.” - Robert Hood *
