Agreed...
Quick correction: Studio 1 Variationen came from Mike Ink's recordings.
There is also CONCEPT1 96:VR that uses the same process on Richie Hawtin
tracks. I prefer the latter one. Either way, you might want to check
that out.
_Weisse Naechte_ and _Totes Rennen_ are at the other end. All of what I
have heard is based on repetition and variation. These CDs seem more
"arty" to me, versus the name 12"s or Max Ernst & f. which are more
functional (hence 12"s I suppose). Grab the _Rosa_ CD to get a sampling
of what's on the name 12"s.
Then you have the 2 Soul Center full-lengths. They make use of many
samples -- such as: a killer funky-stiff beat on "Are You Ready" layered
with the beat from Herbie Hancock's "Rockit", and call-and-response from
between-song banter on old live soul albums.
