DE9 | Closer To The Edit

"After recording, sampling, cutting, and splicing over 100 tracks down into their basic components, I ended up with a collection of over 300 loops, ranging in length from 1 note to 4 bars. I then started to recreate and reinterpret each track, putting the pieces back together as if an audio jigsaw puzzle - using effects and edits as the glue in between each piece. This 53 minute piece, consisting of over 70 tracks and 31 ID points, represents what those loops became, and how their interactions created something that had not existed before." Richie Hawtin "Some of the music on this Compact Disc was originally recorded from analog vinyl. I have attempted to preserve, as closely as possible, the sound of the original recordings. Because of its high resolution, however, this Compact Disc can reveal limitations of analog vinyl." Richie Hawtin 125 tracks, 74 of which are unique, sorted by ID point 2.4, 3.2, 6.3, 7.2, 8.2, 24.3 and 25.3 come credited on cd to Blue Train vs. Dean De Costa Released in a clear tray jewel case with ultra-glossy 8-panel booklet insert.
