Great stuff. If you know and like Richie Hawtin's own music (very > imaginative loops with a bubbly acid twist,) then you'll like this mix.

Am I the only person who doesn't really care for this Mixmag CD? I like Richie's own tracks, but they stand out like a sore thumb on this exercise. Most of the rest of it is *extremely* minimalist House, with about 3-4 sounds (tracks) per song. "Substance Abuse" (F.U.S.E.) sounds positively FSOL-ian (sonic density wise) in comparison to the rest of this stuff. Boring IMHO. - Greg
