I picked up a promo copy of Astralwerks "Detroit: beyond the third wave"
today. It was in the used section for 2 bucks, sealed. So I'm
listining to it and thinking "well it's ok". A lot of Detroit techno
has always been a little too much like house music for my tastes. Track
6 comes up, Ectomorph 'Insert Another Data Disk', a nice little electro
ditty, very old school. Now I'm happy. So I get to the next track,
'life on tek' by Will Web and hear that song with the little arpeggio
that was under the "solarized" cartoon bumpers on AMP. A pretty cool
song, got a little "funky" sample in it and LOTS of bass. As you can
tell, I'm a sucker for breaks, anykind.
Which brings me to the question:
Being that I got a promo, it has no artist info on it...Who is Will Web
and Ectomorph...I know I've heard of the later, just can't place it.
Over all I like this comp. I'm going to track down a copy of it on wax.
Also picked up the 'Werks like a 12"' mix cd today. Sounded good, but I
wasn't really paying much attention to it...thinking about work!
