An hour of minimal techno, nice and acidy sounding (and famously including artwork made to look like a blotter sheet) from Richie Hawtin in the album that launched his Plastikman alias. This hypnotically static music is at its best over extended tracks, and Plasticity is first to set off on a long, winding trip. Glob and Plasticine are my favourites here for the same reason, and in between there are plenty of shorter ventures into creating near-ambient atmospheres, with the same evergreen bleeps and splodges of classic acid bass. Eternally durable journeys for the mind and body.

Thanks Alan. Not as familiar with his work as I should be.
ReplyDeleteNice one - haven't heard this since around the time it came out, i expect my ears will be more receptive this time around. Thanks for the share.
