in mos ferrys eyes mikael stavostrands no turning back(mfp024) release at the end of 2006 still marks a highlight of his minimal techno period - and this is not only because of big bullys unmistakable vocals. now, none other than daniel sanchez (mumbling yeah) takes up the subject once again and with his no turning back remix he picks up where the krause duo started tastefully back then. daniels 12 minutes remix relies totally on an energetic rolling groove and puts the vocals always precisely when others would think it cant get more driving. the second remix was made by mikael stavostrand himself and is a straight and spatial welldesigned dj tool. for his own re-interpretation big bully got reinforcement through the argentinean odnu and heads more towards dub techno. these are three very succeeded remixes, which awake the desire to listen one more time to the original (despite the title)

in the handful of seasons separating then from now mikael has been developing his signature sound with a decidedly languid detour through the ins and outs of romance.

perfect lined-up clicks, deep breathing synths, a few kicks and a little bass - thats mikael stavostrands minimalistic sketch of 2001.

mikael feels very lucky that he had the chance to work with artists who he admires and trust.etten is the voice of this project, however, in a mysterious way her voice sounds like the listeners inner voice .billie ray martin in her also excellent performance confesses to us her oedipal relationship with her mother, this constant bond we are all prisoners of. tech me away is an album made of sounds and references to good old techno. mikael didnt follow whats in fashion in music at all. he only followed his instinct.
