yes. i deserve to be banned for this. :(

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. "

hehe

"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
