Some of the best dub-techno available on CD

As a CD collector, I was happy to find this compilation of Basic Channel artists. Yeah, I have a turntable and I like vinyl, but I rarely sit down to listen to music that way, so I end up having to rip to CD before I can do stuff like...

Brilliant album

This is a brilliant album. The music is minimal. Hard, in the best way. Neither harmonic, nor dissonant, more complex than dripping and clicking, the music is composed from rich sounds and complex rhythms. I was hooked by the first...

Okay, not bad, but nothing special at all

It's nice to put on when I've got something else to do, and from time to time it repays close attention, but I really don't get the Kraftwerk comparison. These guys have so much less going on.

i hate the 4/4 thump

Yes - i hate the 4/4 thump that you can hear in the majority of tracks here. Also the bpm is too fast for me - it is just a question of taste. I am a slow person. I prefer music with a more relaxado andamiento. This is why i like the...
