Review by hyperreal1 Jan 12, 2009
"Distance" is one of that great tracks that helps to understand how was the development of the techno sound and how it moves from "dance" to the "bleep".
Here, two of the greatest techno producers: Juan Atkins and Martin Bonds (Aux 88, Alien FM) comes together in an occasional project call Real by Reel (they only record some 12") to show us what must have been the next wave in electronic music in the start of the 90's, when the IDM was developing.
Rated 4/5

Quite a good example of Detroit's 'second generation' techno artists. Reel by Real's 'Distance' is a perfect meld of Detroit Techno and 'Bleeps' and is one of my favorite techno tracks. The only other place that track can be found is the famous and ultra-rare 'Surkit' EP on Interface records. MK's K.E.L.S.E.Y. track is a pretty typical example of his sound- techno with a little house. 'Warwick' by Eddie Fowlkes' is yet another example of his unique techno sound- which I am a big fan of.
