Wax (19) - No. 10001 - 13-Aug-08 10:36 AM
Actually, judging by the sound, this one has not been produced by Ernestus/von Oswald (who are not longer working tgether) but by multi-talented German producer Shed. If you listen closely to Shed's productions on his Soloaction label, you will surly find similarities... and Shed's sound is quite unique. I wouldn't bet my head, however I am almost certain that he's the man behind it. Now I hope that Hardwax' very own Men in Black won't come to my door...

Shackleton - Blood On My Hands (Ricardo Villalobos' Apocalypso Now Mix) - 31-Jan-08 03:17 AM
Knowing the original version I must strongly disagree with Marellia's supposition 'I trully feel that the original piece only serve providing some raw material'. The original track is immensely powerful tribalish dubstep (so characteristic for Shackleton!) and all Ricard had to do was 'making it minimal'. However, what he did is really impressive and I would say that it's only a bit weaker than the original; on the other hand, it has more of dancefloor potential.
So, if you appreciate the remix listen to the original one - it really deserves it!

T++ - 14-Aug-07 01:02 AM
The man that has been around for many years, using so many names; T++ is the one he seems to be sticking to for now. I can't get rid of a feeling that Torsten has always been a bit underappreciated. His new releases seem to be changing that though, gaining much interest and appreciation. Allied/Tensile is at the moment one of the best records of 2007, previous releases on Erosion were among my 2006 favs. I must say I prefer them to his colabs with Henke (excluding Alaska/Melting which was absolutely brilliant). And I still love returning to Resilent or Various Artists on CR, timeless classics which will never grow old. Hope to hear some more of his solo stuff further this year...

Phase - 15-Mar-06 06:07 AM
One of the most interesting London-based artists; his productions are very deep and intense - they could be given as a perfect example of pure "minimal techno" definition. His style has something in common with Steve Bicknell - both of them produce hypnotic, stripped-down music. However, it's impossible not to notice basic differences between their stuff. The only problem with mr Burchett is that he doesn't release new ep's very often, which is a pity. Fortunately, his upcoming "Timespace?" on Inceptive is brilliant and I am sure his release on Theory 29 will be perfect as well.

Plastikman - Consumed - 10-Feb-06 05:48 AM
Cardinal point in Hawtin's carreer. Probably the highlight, but, on the other hand, from then on he could get nowhere as close to perfection as on this release. Much deeper than previous lp's; oniric soundscapes create unique atmosphere which cannot be heard anywhere else. Would love to hear "Consumed part 2"; instead of it Plastikman turned 'plastic' in sound...
