Yeah, you read that right. This is a new track from Model 500, and XLR8R is offering it for free download. For the unfamiliar—shame on you—Model 500 is, these days, a collaboration between a few Detroit legends, including Juan Atkins (a.k.a. the guy who created techno), Underground Resistance‘s “Mad” Mike Banks, and producer Mark Taylor. Next month, the group will be releasing its first single in more than a decade, “OFI.” Last week, we previewed the record’s title track, and now we’ve got the string-laden b-side, “Huesca.” Even with the long delay between releases, it appears that Atkins & Co. haven’t lost their touch, as the song is a throbbing slice of warehouse-ready techno, complete with soaring melodies, chunky synths, and sweaty low-end.
