Sound textures galore!, October 29, 2000
This review is from: Musik (Audio CD)
This is probably one of his best works, with a good mix of dark beats and light videogame-ish sounds. Each track builds up the sound scape, and it's a challenge to keep track of everything that's coming and going at the same time. This one is probably the best example of his techno work, not nearly as dark and sinister (and monotonous) as 'CONSUMED", but more diverse and experimental.

Richie Hawtin...Acid Mozart, March 6, 2001
This review is from: Musik (Audio CD)
No one should have anything bad to say about this album. Considering it concentrates on a few instruments (Roland 303s, 808s and 909s) it's a masterpiece. It's simple and repetitive, but within the repetitiveness there is something that hooks you on to those sounds. I dare anyone to go and make a 303 sound like he does...It makes me think that his parents opted for synthesizers rather than toys for him to play with!!!! If you enjoy this recording, get Artifakts {BC} and Consumed RIGHT AWAY!! For all of us who enjoy the sound of acid, this guy is our Mozart.

Music For MIND, April 7, 2000
This review is from: Musik (Audio CD)
This album was my first knowing with Plastikman music. And after first listening I found that it was the best thing of this kind of music that I had ever heard before. Richie Hawtin - the one of that man who started a new wave of he techno music near Detroit and developed a new side of TB-303 moved his talent as musician, DJ and producer on this album. Of cause the outcome was predicted - the perfect sound the perfect conception and makes this CD one of the best. The first thing that moved me to such opinion was a very elaborate conception of CD, unlike many other techno musicians, who makes their albums as simple sequence of unrelated tracks which listening to fine in mix but not separately, Richie choose another way. The moving from track to track is congruously with drifting. Without scratching and other DJs methods he reaches the maximal track's convergence, and mind moves with music without any interrupts and pauses. And the second thing is the highest conception completeness of tracks especially for "Plastique", "Ethinik", "Marbles" and "Lasttrak". It's necessary to notice - this music scarcely will suit for dancing, I suppose that that music was substantially made for thinking and meditation. Therefore don't try to understand and make conclusion after the first time, I'm, myself was listening to "MUSIK" many times, and ever new time I was founding and founding now something special. The last - I've never heard such using of TB-303 - instead of standard and simple clacking you can hear very pleasant and beautiful deep sounds, which penetrate in to the depth of you body and soul. Well, if you really like not mainstreaming original electronic intelligence music, I very recommend you to buy this luxurious CD.
