We're bringing him here for a monthly on Friday, and Thomas Fehlmann is gonna be playing a live dub set before he goes on. Should be epic.

he is a great live performer and the dance floor usually gets very messy!

I only know the remix of Blazin' that Modeselektor did for him.

Oh and I think I gave a listen to one of his early albums but remember it being quite shitty.

The new stuff on Ninja Tune sounds good though.

He is one of Montreal's finest exports.

This guy is a true artist. He just won't settle for a particular sound. He evolves and changes his style constantly.

Just to think he used to do proper minimal techno at Mutek a couple years ago.

meh, i know it isn't for everyone.

Like Julien said, he can drop a minimal techno set, then get all dubby, then work in some world music, followed by anything else he feels will rock the floor at any time. He thinks outside the box, something that most guys are to scared to do. I respect that

I was kidding.
