In the summer of 1995 a small record company named RAS DVA RECORDS made a lasting impact on industrial music with the release of the quadruple CD compilation, THERE IS NO TIME.
Curated by label founder and former college radio DJ, RIC LACIAK, the “quad comp” presented the state of the art of underground industrial music, via the inclusion of dozens of acts from various labels around the globe. Historic and unprecedented, THERE IS NO TIME quickly became one of the genre’s hallmark releases.
I had the honor of working promotions for the label. I collaborated closely with Ric in those days and we eventually became friends, sharing a love for industrial and, ultimately, a history of cancer. We often talked about a second edition of the series before he passed away.
PASSING STRANGERS is dedicated to RAS DVA RECORDS and my friend Ric - a vision of what could have been - and to everyone around the world who loves this music as much as we have.
