Re: (313) help - paul mac
i dont know about the album, but i'm going to chime in and say that i
really love his record on surface. the second tune on the a-side really
does it for me in a aril brikha meets surface kind of way.

experts out there can tell me if his album 'old school pupil' is worth
picking up - and his other releases on fragmented ('closed account', 'seaside
electronics', 'another escape', 'bateman tower').
thanks,

Ask him for a house set and it will be pure bliss. At least last time I saw/heard him play house was, but that's already quite a few years back.

RE: (313) ah, as well..
[Juan Atkins - Back to Basics pt 2] I'm with Marsel on this one - while everyone else I've spoken to about it says they really don't like the B side track, I'm very much drawn to it. I first heard it blind (went to visit a friend and he put it on without showing me the label) and was really blown away by it. It's a really unusual and distinctive set of sounds used, but I like that, and as Marsel says, it puts me in mind of older Kenny Larkin material. Although there's still something undeniably 21st-century about the sound! Looking forward to hearing it played out too.

Re: (313) ah, as well..
any opinions about Juan Atkins - Back To Basics Pt2 ? move mix is the track for me on the whole ep, with catastrophy close behind. the other track doesn't really do it for me, a little too hard. robin...

I think that one of the things that made the track appeal to me was how obviously different in sound it was to what people generally expect from modern techno releases - I thought it was quite daring. I see what you mean about it not sounding right, but to me, the idea of a right sort of sound isn't really how I tend to connect with electronic music. Sometimes a different sort of sound will get me pretty excited, as it did with this track. But I realise that I'm definitely in the minority on this one! Brendan
