5.0 out of 5 stars crispy bacon a track on laurent garniers 30 is timeless ., September 10, 1999

30 by laurent garnier. the name 30 comes from laurent garniers age at the time he made this album. having been a dj at world famous clubs like the hacienda in the uk and his own club the Rex in paris for over 16 years and a producer of some of technos finest moments. i listened to 30 with with very high expectations. 30 is one of those rare pieces of art that can change your life and make you take stock of the world you live in. like someone might when they turn 30 or 21 any time when you pause to take in what matters and what is not important. this is emotional tekno music with some sounds that remind you of the rawness of early detroit tekno pioners like mad mike or juan atkins,without sounding retro. in fact the track crispy bacon sounds ten years ahead of its time. 30 is very intellectual but at the same time is sexy and emotional like garniers dj sets. if your some one who needs there hand held through the use of musical cliches and formulas and obvious samples dont buy 30 it will probally go over your head. however if youve ever heard a juicy pad or patch and feelings of excitement or warmth like a geothermal river flowing thru a 909 kick drum. buy this album and treat your self to the best dj in the world in his lab somewhere near paris.

i am still a huge fan since he creats FNAC Communication Label and now F Communication. He is definitely the pioner of french techno, this cd is quiet interesting...

he's the godfather of techno. All tracks are great and uplifting, especially "Flashback", "The Hoe" and of course the brilliant "Crispy Bacon". It's one of the best techno tracks I've ever heard, it's unbelieveable. I don't know how he does it, but I hope he keeps making music like this. Looking forward to see him on the Werchter festival this year. "Le Voyage De Simone" is one of my favs. It can make me cry. If you love this, then you should buy "Unreasonable Behauvior", "A Shot In The Dark" or "Club Traxx Ep".
