Fabric 15: Tyrant / Craig Richards

Starts off cold n metallic, gradually warms up, starts to add vocals, moves into kompakt territory (features a michael mayer track)...i'm only at the end of disc one so far. sounds promising, but then i'm a sucker for techy / dubby / minimal house stuff. Possibly not enough thrills for others?

I only have the second disc which is indifferent electro eclecticism except for the utterly *awesome* "Tottentanz" by Dettinger.

I like this record, but in a really strange detached way. It doesn't really draw me in, but once I start listening to it I love the aesthetic.

Very Confusing.

the first disc is pretty good. there are some good tracks, but a few boring ones. the second cd - i dont know why they put that on.

i've only heard the first disc. the mix of 'river' by m.i.a. and the jeremy caulfield track (can't remember the name) is truly inspired. i like that the mix isn't overly concerned about playing the newest stuff...it's more like a bunch of tracks that work really well together. that said, i could easily see where people might find it a bit clinical.

Approve, not least for the surprise factor (based on a Burridge/Richards mix album I had from a few years back)

Can you elaborate Mr. Stelfox?

I've given disk 1 a few more headphones listenings, and as I recognize tracks and sounds more, am starting to love it...just like Fabric 1.

i haven't listened to it properly but, even more that the usual Fabric CD's (cos it's a double), it's a packaging nightmare!

Someone has finally used a caulfield track on a commercial mix? About bloody time!

Does the track on that Ware compilation a while back count? It was sorta mixed.
