Strange...in the jan/feb issue of Jockey Slut, Clarke totally pans ambient
music in an interview. He disses it to a pulp. I would *seriously* doubt
him coming out with anything ambient in the near future. An exerpt:
--
Jockey Slut: A lot of techno musicians go all ambient and chilled out as
soon as they make an album. How about you?
Dave Clarke: You're never going to get an ambient album out of me. I'm
not going to pander to the indie press who don't understand a fuck about
techno music when you have to dance to it. I'm not going to pander to
them by making an ambient album so that they can rant and rave about it.
That's bollocks.

Geez, Dave. Chill out, man... :) Guess we won't be seeing him collaborate
with Namlook any time soon... :):)
