Jan Jelinek – Loop-Finding-Jazz-Records
The absolute crowning glory of Jan Jelinek's highly valued discography Loop-Finding-Jazz-Records finally made available again on vinyl on Jelinek's highly valued Faitiche records. Coming back around for the first time in sixteen years, this new edition included two bonus archival cuts (B-sides from the Tendency EP, 2000).
When it was originally released back in 2001 on Pole's now defunct ~scape imprint Loop-Finding-Jazz-Records stood out instantly amongst the dust covered sea of clicks and cuts microhouse and mnml that was such a staple of many people's listening back in the early '00s. What instantly stood Jan Jelinek's album out from the crowd was that his take on the sound offered a viewpoint that the further in you gazed, the more of the album's incredibly intricate details and countless endlessly looping layers begin to crumble and fall apart as they hit the speakers.
A visionary record that spawned hundreds of imitators, yet nothing quite ever comes close to the near perfected totally techno loops sculpted by Jan Jelinek across the album's original eight tracks.
