Review by Ronan_Glasgow Jan 11, 2008
Plastikman's "Spastik" is an absolute classic of the techno genre. Its a standout track of the more minimal end of the techno spectrum and is solely percussive. Arguably, the track works as well on its own as it does when mixed over other tracks. However, for those with minimal-phobia, this track, with its rolling snare sound building throughout, is perfect as an accompaniment to other tracks in a mix and can really boost a set.

In short, this track is probably best thought of as a tool. Its great to use throughout a set at different points to create build ups and keep a constant thread running through different mixes. The rolling snare sound is infectious and the crashing cymbals and deep bass kick drive it on like a marching army.

A classic!
