    Default Carl Craig. Did he hit the right spot?

    Carl Craig just released a record called;

    Just Another Day
    on Planet E.


    1 deep nicely blend synth techno tune,
    very rhytmic and deep. And a lot of variation with sounds,
    and a lot of organic / modulation effects.

    And that 3 more tracks with just synthsounds, without any drumssounds.
    Just masterpieces.

    I don't know if any of you already checked out the pieces.
    But I think Carl hit on the right spot if we talk about evolvement in techno.

    In the past Detroit days I remember some music was build up like this.... But it wasn't done really that much.
    Just thought about it a couple of days. This could be a nice formula; not only for the deep / funky stuff, but also for the harder variant.

    I like to hear more synth techno tracks with a lot of freaking inside.
    Doesn't matter if it's hard or soft.
    OUT NOW:
    - Orlando Voorn & Juan Atkins "Game One (Ritzi Lee remix)" on Nightvision.
    - Cybernetics EP on Labrynth (Beatport release)

    OUT SOON:
    - Black Noiz on Labrynth (vinyl release)

    I like it, but I`m not sure it`s an evolution of any kind.
    Has a very old sound, but it`s carried out superbly.
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

    i've always been less enthused about carl craig than a lot of other people (with some notable exceptions...bug in the bassbin, landcruising, etc. are awesome), but i really like what i've heard of this record.

    I went to see him last year just because of reputation. At first I was bored stupid but toward the end it turned out to be one of the best house sets I've ever seen.

    i remind Carl Craig live PA, on party Orion Hall in Brno. it was really awesome even he sounds old school and i would say it was more housey than tech..
    Orion Hall is a big party. in CZ well known as a techno legend. lot of people were surprised with Hardfloor live Pa,,and then Carl Craig also live PA...both were thousands kilometers (not miles:) far away from techno..but both were ****in gr8

    this new record didn't really do it for me. so far, anyway.

    Landcruising is, well, landmark.


    and regarding music that is structurally sound, inventive, formed in the way you (Ritzi) were talking about, check out DJ Bone's work on Subject Detroit. harder, housey, electro.. the man makes great music. and he has some unbelievable stuff in the pipeline.
