ample play records release a heavy duty collection of richard norris recent time and space machine mixes on double vinyl, including download code. a man of many guises, he has operated as a duo - as the grid with dave ball, as beyond the wizards sleeve with erol alkan - but when it is time for some solo sonic action, he records and remixes as the time and space machine. we find him at it here: *the way out sound from in*, reworking the most cosmic beat combos around into hitherto unheard psychedelic shapes. warpaint, jagwar ma, temples, psychemagik, the sufis and more fall into the time and space machine and come out the other side with wider grins and shinier eyes. it is the way out sound from in ... all aboard.
the time & space machine aka richard norris is straight out the gates with a second single off his acclaimed >taste the lazer< album. the summery gem, titled >good morning<, comes packed with three stunning accompaniments from leftside wobble, saint etienne and coyote.
when it comes to being a man of many talents, there are few to equal richard norris. dj, producer, musician, a&r man, author and journalist... his is a career of many twists and turns which have always seen him at the forefront of pushing new ideas forward and championing diversity and innovation, be it alongside erol alkan as part of the wizards sleeve, or gone solo as the acclaimed time and space machine.

SET PHAZER TO STUN (BOTTIN / SIOUX CITY BOYS RMXS)
12 Inch 29.11.10
the recent time and space machine album released on tirk caused quite a stir. received by fans, press and pundits with a bright glowing prodigiousness, we just had to have one final foray into the 12 inch single department. the albums title track set >phazer to stun< was always a favourite with pulsating krautrock influences, nicely melded with some dirt cheap farfisa organ, freakbeat drumming and (of course) plenty of phazer.

to give his work a new context and to recall some of the timewriter’s finest moments, plastic city label gave his thumbs up for resensed part one, asking acclaimed musicians and newcomer producers alike to give the already complete masterpieces the midas re touch. the result, a first sequel of remixes that are now published on timewriter haven plastic city are at least as fascinating as thee eight original tracks and will equally appeal to those die hard the timewriter fans as well as those who discover him for the very first time

ein jahrzehnt nach seinem letzten musikalischen meisterwerk auf perlon kehrt montreals renommierter elektronik-maestro horror inc. (alias marc leclair oder akufen) zurück, um mit a soundtrack for strange times zu fesseln. dieses 4×12″,,,,-album, das unter dem label anoma veröffentlicht und von ohm hourani kuratiert wurde, ist nichts weniger als eine filmische reise.
jeder track des albums ist eine erzählung, die den hörer durch introspektive täler und berauschende gipfel führt, ohne ein einziges wort zu sagen. es ist ein nahtloser klangteppich, ein beweis für die gereifte kunstfertigkeit von horror inc. und ihr tiefes verständnis für die elektronische landschaft.
