'Existenz' sees the Sandwell District affiliate team up with Robert Owens on a number of tracks

On Friday, 6 December, Brooklyn-born producer Function releases his new album Existenz, via Tresor, but you can hear the full thing above premiering exclusively with tQ.

Recorded between 2016 and 2019, the 4xLP release finds Function widen his approach from recent forays into techno, and features house pioneer Robert Owens, among others. It was debuted as an A/V performance at Berlin's Atonal festival earlier this year.
