It's interesting ..
but this sound .. the minimal dub'esqu vibe .. was accused of killing
the NZ Techno scene recently.
We have been trying to revive the sound of techno here for a while.
Since around 96 - 98 ' there has been little to negative action on the
Techno front .. and in recent discussions on a local list .. it was
mooted that the shift from long play hard bangers to more reverb
shifting dub scape's .. killed the floor . and subsequently the scene.
On the flip .. it's as if the vibe purposely went below the filter line
to hide in the rusty clicks ' and tingling echoes .. waiting while the
storm of utter crap to blew over ..
Can we expect ' some point soon where the inverse will occur ..
Where emerging from the timber of space hollow chambers ' the
soul shifting damage of relentless rhythm lines unleash a new
focus on this techno belief.
..
da . it's an awful lot that you expect from one record these days ..
but ' i never accepted the word "seminal" until I grew up ..
..
break out the love ' and let the bass shine through
