    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

    Why ? Surely if you spent hours upon hours working on trax in the studio you would then want to experience the reaction of the crowd first hand. It's his call at the end of the day but it is a real shame.

    Man it really annoys me, that people allways assume that a named producer plays records, or a named DJ makes tunes.
    I think half th wporblem with this scene is that too many DJ`s think because they can play em, they can make em, and there is a lot of kak on the market because of this.

    I kinda respect the guy for not playing records. Cos there is less ego involved in what he does.

    I`m not having a go at anyone here. I`m just snapping at the world in general.

    Erase techno is brilliant just hard and seriously filthy techno!! What Kind Of Sound is a good release aswell, it's electro, he mainly produces hard techno and electro.

    Chris has no interest in the more usual side to the scene such as clubbing and Djing, he is soley a music maker!!! which is cool in a way, but i personally wud want to see the reactions in teh clubs to my records


    either way the mans one of teh best, if not the best, uk producer at the moment

    The remixes were good as well, and I see there's a new round of them coming up including a Lars Klein mix. Should be worth a listen.

    Chris McCormack seems to be one of the rare techno producers who can write good music outside of techno. His Returned (as UK Gold) and What Kind Of Sound albums are outstanding, and the original version of Arise is an absolutely infectious piece of modern dub. Sometimes you wonder if the reason he doesn't play out live is because he can't do justice to the breadth of his material with simply a sampler or Ableton.

    Heh, I STILL play the Zentz one on the original remix record. Total masterpiece.
