emptiness isnt a quality you normally associate with electronic dance music. from the crowd on the associate with electronic dance music. from the crowd on the dancefloor to the weight of the bass, its all about fullness, volume, density. reboot turns that opposition on its head with his debut album, shunyata. the title comes from buddhism and translates loosely as >emptiness.< but not just in the negative sense: it speaks also to impermanence, a state of constant flux. its a great description of reboots music, where everything is in constant and kaleidoscopic motion. and its also a fitting metaphor for the life of the frankfurt-based musician, aka frank heinrich. in just three years, since his first eps under the reboot moniker appeared on cadenza and below, hes become one of electronic musics hottest properties, releasing not only a slew of singles for labels like cocoon, love letters from oslo, ricardo villalobos >sei es drum< and underground cult fave motivbank, but also a pair of high-profile mix cds for cocoon and cécille
