from the swedish magazine "Groove" 7/2000 (out last week):
tied & tickled trio "ea1 ea2 rmx" (morr music)
Tied & Tickled Trio isn't a trio at all. It's a collection of
musicians, including sax player Johannes Enders, that play post
rock/jazz. May show similarities to bands like Tortoise, etc. On "ea1
ea2 rmx" seven different artists have remixed material from the bands
record of last year, of course titled "ea1 ea2."
Opiate and Console both turn the bands material into nice
click+cuts-inspired techno. Christof Kurzmann takes the opposite
route and produces an impressive tune which sounds like as if Red
Snapper would play free form jazz. Thomas "Max Ernst" Brinkmann's two
contributions tries to create minimalistic techno from the source
material, but the result isn't as good as i had expected. Kandis'
warm, BoC-similar contribution is much better. The closing track from
argentinian Gustavo Lamas has a few things in common with the Basic
Channel gang's hissy dub techno. "ea1 ea2 rmx" is a pretty good
collection remixes, if a bit too heterogenous. More good mixes than
bad.
