What about the Plastikman issue? There was several journalists making an issue out of the fact that you almost shared your name with techno producer, Richie Hawtin. So they were forcing some connection between the musics, even though you had never heard of him previously.
Plasticman: Yeah. That is causing slight problems. I am very wary now that I’ve found out about him.
Its an old comic character as well. I don’t know if he got hassle for that, and so changed his spelling to use a K. You could always change it to a Q.
Plasticman: Yeah. . .that’s what I’ve done on that cd I’ve just given you. . .look.
. . .Plastique?
Plasticman: Yeah. . .I’m just testing the water on that one. I was speaking to John at Big Apple about that, cos they are big techno heads. I asked him if anything had come up about it on the scene and he said not yet. I don’t want to change my name right now. I’m just starting to break. The scene is still fresh and new, and in 5 years time I want people to be able to look back and see that I was doing my thing from the start.”
. . .but you’ll probably have about 6 names by then.
Plasticman: yeah. . .but I’m a good talker, so if anything does come, hopefully we can deal with it, and sort something out. But as I said, it wouldn’t be a problem for me to change it to a Q or something like that.
How did you find out about the name issue.
Plasticman: Through John at Big Apple. I started writing reviews for Rewind mag. And they asked me what I wanted to review as? As a Dj? I was like, ‘not really. I’d rather keep it anonymous. Just call it Plasticman cos I’d be reviewing vinyl and that kind of fits.’ And then I started making the tunes and that, and joined a few web forums using the name. And then I put those tunes up that I told you about. So it just stuck from there. So had that tune not done anything, and I’d stopped doing rewind, I wouldn’t be called Plasticman now. You know what I mean. It’s all chance. I certainly don’t want it to go to court or anything like th

I just found that as well :D
Says at the top
" There is a cockney cheekiness to the Plasticman sound which most self-consciously dark music usually lacks; a drum edit here, a pitched down stab there, in fact little sonic jokes and pokes in the ribs everywhere. On the recent hardcore drenched release on Soulja, ‘White Gloves’, the bassline becomes increasingly comic as its convulsively spasms out of control. Now, with a barrel full of ammunition floating around on dubplate [watch for ‘Safari’ and ‘Camel Ride’ for his take on grime orientalism], and interest from labels like Haywire and Rephlex, and his own label Terrorhythm on the verge of debuting with Mark One’s ‘Fight’ with Plastic’s remix, we belatedly caught up with industrial’s latest machine part. "

"Plasticman: I use Fruity Loops and Reason. I’m still trying to get to grips with Reason. I can’t really see my stuff getting over musical. I prefer to do atmospheric stuff. I’m more interested in the engineering side of things, the sound. You know that bit in 1984 by George Orwell."
Who says you can't get signed using FLoops or Reason :D
