Jeff Mills - Waveform Transmission Vol. 1

One of my all time favorites, and living proof of how quality surpassess the tests of time and constantly oncoming modern trends!
The opening four tracks, which basically means half of the album, move at supersonic speed, portraying agressive Detroit techno from back in the day, mercilessly rushing forward while incinerating dance floors, listeners' perception of electronic music, you name it! Jerical, Changes Of Life and Berlin are synonims for hard techno which patched up generation gaps and reunited us under a unique flag of a techno nation stronghold!
Basically, true to the form audio wizardry from one of the genre's most prominent figures hitting you hard at maximum velocity, while the brutal and unpolished sounds of these eight tracks won't leave you flat. You can hate on it, you can love it 'till you die, you can cherish or dismay in disbelief, but you won't passively listen through. It will effect you, in one way or the other.
One of the finest examples that I own of how skilled manipulation of machines can and will provoke moods and or altered states of mind. Hard, loud and repugnant to compromises of any kind or sacrificeing its artistic speech in favor of wide spread appreciation.

Classical album - who doesn't know this? Even if I'm not big fan of pure techno, I have respect for this record - such tracks as "DNA", "The Hacker" and especially true materpiece - "Phase 4" always impresses me. Time flows, but really great works will never grow old - just like this one.
