“I know now that the term ‘Techno’ is irrelevant. It is what is being said with the sound of Techno that is most important. Vinyl vs. CD vs. digital vs. what else will surely come is a useless debate. These are only carriers of the Music, and have little bearing on the information it’s carrying. Sadly, very few people in this profession talk about Music anymore. It’s mainly about who is...

“Electronic dance music is enjoying a remarkable resurgence in America, but it’s unlikely that the sounds of this female synth wave will be bursting out of the speaker stacks at mega-raves. They don’t release their records through techno labels, but via indie-rock underground labels like Not Not Fun and Olde English Spelling Bee. That realm, which puts a premium on eccentricity and...

“I just had to release demos again… music I really like instead of music that I’d do. Once I’ve done something, I like to move on and do something new. I guess it’s just the reflection of how my taste changes—or progresses, not changes. I’m not so much affected by how much the music sells, more just by how it sounds now, which I find less stressful.” Mike...

“This is a music that historically was disrespected by the mainstream media, mainstream compilers, mainstream attention. If you were somebody on the internet fanatically trying to download B-sides, you can disagree. But in terms of serious professional attention being paid, the degree of interest from the major-label music business has been spotty and intermittent at best.” Dance...

“During making the EP we were squatting in our own apartment because the place hadn’t been finished yet. But yeah, there’s this kind of contextual shit – life stuff, or state of mind, or whatever – that can make you rush through things and shape what you make. But I think the constant refining is a way for us to develop more intent.” Ford & Lopatin (formerly known as Games) Interview...

“I am also recreating an energy that I feel lacks in a lot of current dance music. Not discounting a load of lovely music, I just miss an energy I hear in old records that happily sit in my mind as a fantasy. I think we are in an age of sonic possibilities again. It is a shame to some, how much we are provided with information wise, as it can cheapen the experience a bit. You need to find...

“I’ve got six [albums] completed. Two are very non-commercial, abstract, modular-synthesis, field recordings – those I finished four years ago. Another one is Melodies From Mars, which I redid about three years ago. There’s one of stuff I won’t go into; a comp of old tracks which is never really finished and always changing; and then one I’m working on now. There are also loads of tracks which...

2010 Year in Review
Top 20 Albums:
1. Forest Swords – Dagger Paths – Olde English Spelling Bee
An unclassifiable, melancholic miasma of Morricone-esque guitar, grounded dub bass, neo-tribal rhythm and languorous drones.
2. Autre Ne Veut - Autre Ne Veut - Olde English Spelling Bee
Autre Ne Veut’s self-titled debut is one of the most bizarre, brazen and gloriously stomach-turning pop...

“I’ve been into techno since 1991. At the time I wasn’t so interested in where the music was coming from or what it was actually about, I just wanted to go out and experience something new. I didn’t want to know who was making these records; I wanted only to listen to them.” Shed Interview in Fact “I feel like any analysis of our generation has to start with the idea that...

“I find it a very confusing time, actually. There are so many mini micro sub-niche parts of what used to be dubstep or UK underground music, and it feels like everything is in transition. And to be honest, it feels like it’s a holding pattern before something else comes.” Kode9 Feature & Interview
