Description
シカゴ・ハウスの礎を築いたLarry Heardの監修作品でも知られるRebirth Recordsが、20年にわたり積み上げたカタログを再構築した重要コンピレーション。
Rebirth Recordsの節目を刻むコンピレーション『Rebirth 20』。レーベルを象徴する楽曲群に新たなリミックスを施し、さらに見過ごされがちだった楽曲も再び光を当てた内容となっている。
これまで同レーベルは、Larry Heard aka Mr. Fingersが手掛けたコンピレーションをはじめ、Ciao ItaliaやBrixia Sonora、Paraíso. The True Spirit of Ibizaといったプロジェクトを通じて、ハウスを軸にしながらも多様な表現を提示してきた。本作でもその姿勢は変わらず、伝統的なハウスの感触を保ちながら、現代的な解釈とバランスよく融合している。
収録曲には、Dj Python、Glenn Underground、Makèz、Alva Noto、Terrence Parker、Nick Holderら世代を横断したアーティストが参加。ディープ・ハウスから実験的サウンドまで幅広いアプローチが並び、レーベルの歩みと拡張性を同時に感じさせる構成となっている。
単なる回顧ではなく、過去と現在をつなぐ再構築。ハウス・ミュージックの文脈を軸に、音楽・カルチャー・感情が交差するRebirth Recordsの本質を凝縮した一枚。

2026 marks a milestone: twenty years of Rebirth Records. A decade after the iconic compilation curated by none other than the maestro Larry Heard, also known as Mr. Fingers, we are proud to present Rebirth 20, a special anniversary album celebrating two decades of sound, vision and evolution. The collection features fresh remixes of some of the label’s most iconic tracks alongside rare gems that may have quietly slipped through the cracks, now ready to shine again.
Rebirth 20 captures the essence of a label deeply rooted in house music yet constantly evolving with a fresh, contemporary spirit. More than just a record label, Rebirth has become a creative hub, pushing artistic boundaries and curating projects that connect music with culture and emotion. From Ciao Italia and Brixia Sonora to Paraíso. The True Spirit of Ibiza, each project has reflected a commitment to vision, authenticity and artistic freedom.
The journey continues in 2026. Rebirth 20 will be released as a limited double vinyl edition for the Record Store Day, followed by a three-part digital release beginning in June. The album features remixes by names like Dj Python, Glenn Underground, Makèz, Alva Noto, Terrence Parker, Nick Holder, RSS Disco, Dj Babatr, Cromby and many more, a meeting of generations united by a shared belief in timeless sound. Two decades on, Rebirth remains what it has always been: a place where music, art and emotion converge. A label that never stops moving forward while staying true to its soul.
