Itchdoktors make deep techno with a feel for the past, but also with that quality of (to quote Jeff Mills about his vision for techno) "...something that you never heard before".
Deep basslines set against organic, punchy analog pattern sequences and metronomic Roland TR 808 rhythms open up a modern dialogue with the classic language of Detroit and Chicago machine funk. There's also warmth, personality and even a sense of playfulnes.
Itchdoktors have that 'outsider' quality reminiscent of moments such as In Sync's 'Warm/Storm' on the Irdial discs label or even the unique electronic funk that Dan Curtin and friends brought to the party via releases on his Metamorphic label.
