Richie Hawtin - ''Decks, EFX & 909''
(Tuesday October 26, 1999 4:28 PM
)
Released on 25/10/1999
Label: NovaMute
A mix album with a twist from Canada''s most bangin'' export Richie Hawtin, who gets through records at a rate almost akin to the legendary Jeff Mills. Here he spices things up by adding effects into the mix and looping and rearranging elements of the tracks as he flies through them. The vinyl comes from such techno luminaries as Maurizio, Jeff Mills, Surgeon and Richie himself – he performs a EQ fest with his ''Orange/Minus'' series which gracefully slides into Nitzer Ebb''s ''Let Your Body Learn''. An impressive set which lets the hard stuff breathe enough to be accessible to more than just the average techno nut.
