Review

Muzik (12/98, p.68) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...a potent piece of work...offering another take on stark, anxious music articulating mental ill-health - whether chemically-induced or otherwise....a major head[screw] worth experiencing."

Title Note

Plastikman: Richie Hawtin.

Anyone who has followed the evolution of techno music to date is doubtless already familiar with Richie Hawtin, the boyish face behind the Plastikman icon. Born in the UK, Hawtin relocated as a pre-teen to Windsor, Ontario and it wasn't long before he began crossing the U.S./Canadian border and immersing himself in the techno sub-culture of nearby Detroit. Often the only white hanger-on in a predominantly black dance scene, Hawtin was later instrumental in ushering in a more multiracial crossover success for techno in the Detroit area with events like his "Hard, Harder, Hardest" series of warehouse parties, forging a missing link of sorts between UK rave culture and classic Detroit techno.

His fourth album chronologically, ARTIFAKTS conceptually falls between his second and third albums. It represents the completion of material left unfinished when he was barred from entering the US for performing illegally and subsequently cut off from releasing material through his Detroit-based label Plus 8. The result is similar to CONSUMED in that it transforms the constantly mutating 303 synth lines of Acid house into abstract forms more at home alongside Tangerine Dream than on the platter of a DJ's turntable.
