anyone get this yet? listening to it for the first time now, i think. i think i've heard this before, this was released 2k3, right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love plastikman, but what is 2k3? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

released this year (2003). not highly familar with the entirity of his discography, so i wasn't sure if i dled a mislabeled abulm, but i just checked, and it is legit. |

This album is pretty sweet. If you've heard his second last album "consumed", you'll be in familiar territory. Sheet One, Musik, and Artifakts BC were a Plastikman trilogy in standard jewel cases, each with a red and black plastikman logo on a white background. I think that Consumed, Closer and another Plastikman release starting with the letter "C" in a black cardboard sleeve will be the next trilogy installment. I'm quite sure that I'll be right on this one, although I'm not sure how much more minimal this guy can get with his next release. There's already hardly anything there. |

Now I'm on a Plastikman kick again. Shit. |
||||||||
|
|

i bought this today...he didnt impress me much with his previous releases i've heard, but this one is EXCELLENT so dark and minimalistic...this is really something for the brain, its extremly tense music but not danceable so it would be great to listen to this and then listen to some crazy drum n bass so you can get wild and relaxed :) brilliant stuff!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cant get enought of this...one of my favourite albums this year! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didnt like it.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think the "vox" or phonography samples in it add texture, but i feel that there's nothing new. I like his work with de9. My fav richie hawtin sounds are from the artifackts era. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just downloaded it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cant really get into it for some reason.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ive seen the vid, disconnect my brain, two times already on alternative nation, that looks nice, like the voice too, the music a bit |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like this..... haven't listened to it much though, "closer to the edit" has taken more of my time.... that thing is amazing |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
closer to the edit is pretty good. anyone get any of the 12 really minimal 12"s he released in 96? they are fantastic. managed to track down 5 of them, cant remember the name of that project though. really like closer. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
This Album is just gay, its badly produced and sounds CHEAP....I dunno why you lot like it....its not very good...infact it sucks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you should really get the original...perhaps you just have bad mp3's...cos the productoin is quite excellent :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well yes I meant the CLOSER Album...and not DE9....which was excellent |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok, then we disagree |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wonder why people are comparing richie hawtin releases with plastikman releases, as he has those 2 different aliases for totally different projects. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
fucking awesome release, plastikman is great |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree - that is the point of having 2 different aliases.. but essentially it is the same man making the music. so people can, at least, decide which alias they prefer to enjoy aurally.. so to speak. i personally think 'closer' is a great release. i love hawtin's plastikman albums. i know it's been criticised for the sci-fi-esque vocal elements+the recycling of old plastikman basslines.. but it my mind, the fact that it (argueably) doesnt cover as much ground as previous albums is just an academic point. in my opinion, its a great record. dark, atmospheric - still funky in places.. once again, the construction is so minimal, its as much about what isnt there as what is. |

headcast? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Slowpoke is a great track... I especially like the cell phone ring in that track... very discrete! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha yeah - that threw me when i first heard it. thought someone had fucked with my phone + put that appalling nokia ring on it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
acrid = headcast = headcase |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
*headcase :) d un dun du u n |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha . sounds just like it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this album is brilliant...so dark and intense..uhh... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
indeed. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Lokomotion - my fav trr from Consumed. Great minimal on Artifakts BC. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im listening to this after a while...it's fucking brilliant!! "i don't know" is excellent, much alike some biosphere stuff and i love that :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
plasticman>autechre? plasticman>tokyo+1?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
plasticman? you mean the one from rephlex? i don't know him all that well actually... as for plastikman (hawtin), yep, i'd say he's better then both, autechre and brinkmann :) though, brinkmann is very good as well! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
whoops, my bad. i meant plastikman, whose work i have never heard. plasticman, whose work i have heard, is capable of conjuring an exciting beat and bassline but clearly in fact: 1000000*plasticman<1*autechre! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you can't be serious!!?? you never heard richie hawtin? the techno god? :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
This is excellent and so is Consumed. Reccomend me some more Richie Hawtin or Plastikman. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Consumed was amazing... this album would have been too, if it weren't filled with god awful super psuedo-intelectual psuedo-artistic spoke word shit over top. Release an instrumentals album, and it would have been one of the best albums of 2003. As far as I am concerned, if this is the direction he needs to go artistically, then he has become an awful artist. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i agree... why couldn't he stop at artifakts [bc] |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't mind the vocals. I think they work quite well on Disconnect. The title track of consumed is a masterpiece. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I love "Disconnect" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The Decks Fx and 909 mix from a few years ago was excellent, it's not as minimal as Closer to the edit, and really gets me in the mood to bounce around a club. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Its too housy, IMHO...it gets on my nerves FAST !!!!!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I guess It hasn't really stood the test of time too well, since all that shitty tribal house stuff happened shortly after. I like a lot of house tho. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I like the first bit of this album. But he ruins it with the more cluttered and regular tracks at the end-they just sound like badly done, repetitive techno imo. But the first half is wicked. |
