Bleep

Former head-honcho at the inimitable Ostgut Ton, Nick Höppner has used his new-found free time to record 'Folk', his first solo album. The full-length exemplifies Höppner's talent in creating productions which act as a how-to of minimal but adventurous techno, and this has to be one of his most opulent yet. Opener, 'Paws' kicks things off with strength and a powerful kick drum all overlaid with a floating melody and lilting percussion. Whilst closer, 'No Stealing' feels crescendo-like as the percussion churns on and indecipherable vocals fill more and more of the track.
