Jonathan Lisle presents chapter two in Bedrock Music's Original
Series, a collection of mixes featuring tracks by a wide selection of
club and techno acts. On this installation, we get cuts from the
likes of Rabbit in the Moon, Habersham, and Young
American Primitive, among others. The flow is strong, and
the selection is certainly effective, so the mix is a solid choice for
techno fans.
Of the thirteen tracks here, I especially appreciated RITM's
"Waiting For The Night," Art of Silence's "West
4 (Crowd Control Dub)," and PMTs intense "Afro
Lavalamp." The disc often swaps back and forth between
dark, mechanical techno (PMT Matthew Dekay) and lighter
clubby stuff, often with vocals (Gavin Hardkiss, Habersham).
Though far from groundbreaking, Lisles mix is a very satisfying
disc of electronic music. Take it for what it's worth.
