Me too- the only problem was that when he started doing all the
Ignitor re-releases of his earlier material (Basic Bastard etc) they
REALLY churned them out quickly and I think people got a bit
overwhelmed by it all- he does everything from deep vocal house to
complete techno insanity (Industrial Metal) but always with a
slightly warped viewpoint- I've met him a few times and he's
basically a bit bonkers in the nicest possible way.
If you never got into it at teh time check out Tank- Bite Befoer You
Bark- Buzz played it on Saturday night to great effect and it's been
one of Martin Rubadub's top tunes for the last 2 years running.

On a more positive vibe then - Orlando Voorn has a new release on
Hertz records (a new label, possibly from Belgium) and it's the best
thing he's done in aeons- emotional techno? THIS is emotional
techno- pure cyber-funk with classic OV honking FM sounds and a
spacious feel to the synth lines- one side even has some crazy disco
stabs seamlessly integrated with the electronic noise-fest.

So far it's entertaining, but stop when you start repeating yourself.
Anyone besides me notice that no one defended Richie in those
message threads?
So who is everyone arguing with?
I'd be way more interested in people talking up how great Shake is
(for example) over how much they hate Richie Hawtin and his rockstar
lifestyle. Or people talking about his genius for self-promotion,
marketing and running a business? I can think of a lot of Detroit
musicians working day jobs who would be where Richie is if they had
his non-musical skills.
