Torque
Ed Rush · 1997Recording
“Torque” was released in 1997 on No U-Turn’s “Torque” compilation and is credited to Ed Rush & Nico. The track was produced within the No U-Turn circle, with Nico central to the label’s production and engineering identity. The track was part of the “Torque” album, a landmark No U-Turn release that gathered Ed Rush, Nico, Trace and Fierce around the label’s hard-edged studio sound. It helped define the record’s reputation as a major late-1990s statement from the No U-Turn camp. “Torque” remains tied to the wider legacy of No U-Turn’s 1997 album and its influence on later dark, stripped-down drum production. It is still listed in digital and collector catalogues as one of the title tracks from the original project.
