I've got a little info:
All the RAC i've got are badass shit. I've got the 'Tangents' and
'Doublejointed' EP's and the LP, 'Structures'
Tangents = 4 tracks of breakbeat bliss
Doublejointed = 2 semi-housy tracks and 2 shit hot electro tracks
I can't remember the LP very well, but there's a few nice IDM type
tracks...was expecting more breaks.
The production quality is superb throughout.
interesting fact #1:
the EP's were written by Dunkenfield/Benson
the LP was written by Dunkenfield
very interesting fact #2:
all were engineered by none other then Richard Brown of Autechre
Well that's about all I got. I researched RAC awhile ago, but can't
remember what I found out...check out the warp site.
Once apon a time, I thought RAC had something to do with LFO, because of
the marked similarity between RAC 'nine' and LFO 'Tied up(electro
mix)'...now I realize that that's treading on pretty thin ice. Silly
me, but they sure do mix well together.
I plan on giving the LP a listen tonight, maybe I'll post a review. As
for the singles, if you like breaks and can find'em, buy'em! There was
a time when everytime you went out in LA, you'd hear a RAC track or
two. I still like to throw 'nine' or 'quexos' into my electro sets.
hope this helps.
