SKATEBARD Schallplatten & CDs

Review: As one of the leading lights in Norwegian techno with guts, heart and soul, Skatebard has long skirted scene recognition to simply focus on slipping out his own strain of wayward machine matter. Given his track record with Sex Tags Mania, it's no surprise he'd trust DJ Sotofett with access to his archives, and so Spektral has come together as an exploration of long-buried recordings from the early 00s, edited by Sotofett and wrestled into a digestible form for this record. Capturing the best aspects of freeform jamming while cutting everything into shape, there's an inherent dirtiness to these recordings which instantly tells you it comes from an honest place.

Review: We feel very lucky that this man, who already in 2002 was delighting us with "Skateboarding Was A Crime" is back again! Rapid CD that sounds different each time. Once Slam techno, once Clone electro and once Aguayo sexiness!
