Big fan. (No more cheap Frak vinyl soon though...sadly.)<br /><br />And unlike so many well-aged electronic music veterans, Frak's recent output is some of its very best.Salaried Man Clubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02238569913806131102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220957931635097123.post-88070600670187058132012-04-12T19:58:31.261+10:002012-04-12T19:58:31.261+10:00@soyuz and chris : i get your respective points ab...@soyuz and chris : i get your respective points about reacting to some prevailing sounds in contemporary (underground) techno, but, honestly, what is the point in dissing such and such producers for their natural affiliations ? Will you openly criticize some guys for making records and hoping to get playlisted by Dozzy at the Lab ? (pure random example). Do these guys really aim at such and such djs, or are they just under a strong influence and making stuff they like ? Has it ever really been otherwise in other times and places of the club and dj era ????<br />I personnaly more relate to Fengler in the Berghain family, but have no issues whatsoever with Klock, or Dettmann. They became iconic of this particular institution and I don't see them do no harm on a global level. Frak may 'be techno', but so are the Berghain guys, and Dozzy, and Vril, and Psycatron, and Legowelt, and ... you name them.<br />Shouldn't we know better than easy dogmatism when it comes to defining music (in this case techno) we consider relevant for today and possibly tomorrow ?<br />Anyways, thanks for this Frak-set, I do like a good injection of lo-fi electronic folk music now and then, whatever it is actually supposed to be called.DietrichDiskohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14276659326183547085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7220957931635097123.post-57963511185177283052012-04-12T01:50:45.180+10:002012-04-12T01:50:45.180+10:00i wish you guys would be more acidic in your criti...i wish you guys would be more acidic in your criticism of contemporary techno, and name more names. all this vague pointing in the direction of 'music that is made for berghain' is not specific enough anymore.
