Took the words right out of my mouth. Also, some of his older Betalounge
live sets are devastating. I used to listen to one of them incessantly.

another 313 connection-- he played demf2001 down in
the concrete bunker. between his set and autechre's i
think got a serious brain rewire down there...
 
for some proper dancefloor minimal techno stuff from
him (a la Rob Hood), check the B side of Moles &
Avocados on Background.

I love his Lateral forces [surface fault) album on Vertical Form. Probably
his most ambient work.

i highly recommend kit's "adventures in the land of sound and shape" EP on
velocette's parallel label.  choice cuts...  you can read a more coherent
review on dan sicko's techno rebels site.

Maybe because autumn appears to have come early here, I find myself in a
sort a mood for Kit Clayton stuff (just my own personal association.) Anyone
on here who isn't familiar with his stuff, I'd recommend you check it out.

Personally, I don't think I've ever heard a poor Kit Clayton track, and I
know I'm not the only own who thinks that whilst he's not from (or "for" ;-)
Detroit, his music has an edge with which people who like 'Detroit'
electronic music, can find an affinity. (For instance Juan Atkins used "Belt
Frictional Problem" some years back on a mix cd.)

His style seems primarily 'dubby' (dubby in a techno sense that is). But it
ranges from crystal clear, highly structured arrangements which (for me)
seem to put the intelligence back into 'IDM', to seriously browned-out,
blatantly toking delay-fests. (Did you know, for instance that a Kit Clayton
track holds the first ~scape catalogue number? It's sc 001 for 'Nek
Purpalet'.

Happy discovering for anyone who hasn't yet.
