AUTOKINETIC Schallplatten & CDs

Review: Mike McClure is the Minneapolis rave pioneer known as Autokinetic and he has been a key part of the live electronic since its earliest days. He has a cultured sound that saw him come up next to the likes of Freddy Fresh and DVS1 and now he satin on his own. His potent take on echo is laid bare here with 'Sidewinder' a real head twister with rubbery bass twisting and turning beneath full-fat drums. 'Didgeradont' has a melody that sounds as if made by an indigenous Australian instrument 'File003' then zones you out on sleek lines and frictionless drums that are minimal but impactful. 'Wakeword' shuts down with some nice acid wonk.
