The Horrorist aka Oliver Chesler.... been picking up some of his older stuff... great music, anyone else rate this guy? also i hear his live stuff is nuts?
he's one of few i'm still anxious to see live in action.
he doesnt play live. his girlfriend does. he just jumps around shouting into a mic.
guy is hilarious. love him. not exactly my kind of techno, but he wins massive style and humor points from me.
his remix of horrormone on tresor is probs my fave hororrist tune, or 99.9 with john selway
i remember his releases from IS and IST,
99.9 or by Disintegrator records are my fav
aye ave seen him live 3 times- gets ye bouncing nae probs - dunno if his birds even doin anythin behin th laptop tbh - defo advise to go in c him
Yeeah! 'lock on target' and 'dark blue ominous clouds' on Industrial strength.. that ep was simply awesome! think it was him and selway tooQuote:

Super-social amphetamine.

The panic disorder gripping...
the entire race has a whole.
Flesh is the fever of force...
and its the sound without remorse.
Rampant is the army of disease...
that brings you to your knees!
You cant believe everything you hear.
You cant believe everything you see.
The conspiracys ever growing...
and all you can believe in is me!
These are the things, the things to come.

Having said that, without him there'd be no "one night in hackney" and no mention of "progressive electro house synthesis, mate" so I guess that (in a most tenuous manner) vindicates a certain aspect of his career. Probably.
I thought his live set was totally guff tbh. If i wanted to see someone prance about on stage i would go and see britney spears - at least she dances too. No fluidity to his sets or anything! His choons are ok but not my favourites, too.
Who's Keats matey?Quote:

And every now and then I hear something from him that reminds me of that old Temper Tantrum stuff. I wish he hadn't left NYC.Quote:
