Bought this album years ago, then dug it up again recently. What does anyone make of it? I think it's one hell of an album, and I wish there was more of this kind of stuff around. Incidentally, what other stuff has he released since? Any info appreciated.

What do they sound like? Musik is 1994 release, and has a very bare, spartan sound to it. A lot has a straight acid sound to it, but some move in different, quieter directions. (Forgive me, I was 16 in 1994, the time in life when I knew everything abt music! Now I still keep in touch, but havent as much free time to keep up with what's going on.)

better than the overated consumed ever ritchie hawtin fan raves on about.
Sheet One is the most similar of his album is to music so check that out if you like music.

I found Consumed to be quite tedious after Sheet One and Musik, I don't know why everyone rates it. Maybe I should listen to it again... it's been a while.

it's one of those albums that can still make me really feel like i'm out of this world
artifakts (bc) was my first introduction to plastikman and i was absolutely transported
i always liked the deep effect that electronic music could have on me but it was the first time it felt so real and so perfect
so check it you'll probably like it even if it's less like musik than sheet one

Just don't go near Closer. It's MORE minimal than Consumed, and has Richie talking over it - lots of pretentious monologues. Just awful.
Sheet One is rawer and more repetitive than Musik. He overuses that aeroplane sample far too many fucking times. Just get Recycled Plastik instead.

how fucking stupid. the whole concept of plastikmans' music is already pretentious, so how can closer be an awful album. it is possibly his best, up there with sheet one. jesus fucking christ, in the arse and squealing.

i can't listen to consumed continuosly all the way through... i have to take it scattered about. i have a gap of plastikman material that i haven't gotten around to... i first got sheet one when it was released... didn't buy another plastikman cd until consumed.

The thing that really carries his music is its spaciousness and mood. When he has stupid lyrics that sounds like a 10 year old wrote it after his first bout with extistentialism, drowning out all the beautifull ambience, then it gets stupid.
In his website talks about the ideas behind the different albums.
