Sten - The Essence Peter M. Kersten's productions as Lawrence are the archetypal darlings of Dial, the label he founded with Carsten Jost and Turner's Paul Kominek. Mixing solid house rhythms with exposed weepy melodies, Lawrence tracks readily conform to album-length "home-listening" requirements, qualities that reputedly have convinced many a rock jock of the joys of dance music. Sten's second album The Essence comprises recent singles, b-sides and new material and, at least until track six, flows as smoothly as anything Kersten's ever released. Layering blunt, frequently unwavering drum patterns over moody, vintage synth pads, this suite of tracks establishes an enthralling, dystopian atmosphere perfect for dark, late night journeys.

Kersten launched the Dial label in 2000 together with his flat mate and DJ friend Carsten Jost. After his Lawrence releases on Ghostly International, Cocoon, Mule Electronics, Kompakt and Sender, it is the Sten moniker which reduces Kersten's musicality to the magic moments on a minimal dancefloor. His deep and functional Detroitish minimal techno has been the DJ's choice from the first 12" to Sten's album Leaving the Frantic, released in 2004 on Dial.
