"‘Fabric 22’ blends the best in Swedish techno talent – Joel Mull, Cari Lekebusch and Adam himself – with internationally acclaimed artists like Steve Rachmad, Reinhard Voigt and Josh Wink. The opening track – Wighnomy Brothers’ remix of Slam and Tyrone Palmer – captures the spirit of the mix perfectly: established names meeting the new and less known. Elsewhere, highlights include Ghostly International’s Osborne getting groovy, Mathew Jonson’s elegant rework of Heim, Tim Taylor’s warped Panic Voice, and the albums centrepiece, Adam’s own Snuff & Noise. Using subtle mixer effects, quick cuts and long blends, Adam brings us a stunning selection of the very best in European techno." -www.fabriclondon.com



I'm surprised nobody started a thread on this album. I don't have much experience with Techno but as a prog fan this is an awesome introductory mix for techno. The only thing I might complain about is the ending, it kind of just dies off without any outro. Othwerise this album is thoroughly enjoyable.

It has been done, just not in this subforum..

I hated to see the fact Adam Beyer also jumped on the minimal bandwagon. And I still do.

It sure shares some elements with that CD, maybe you'll like it, I just don't

This one's just a little more on the minimal side of things.

i prefer my techno a bit more bangin, so i guess the elements it shares are probably the odd bits i dont like from the cd.

Oops I searched before I posted this thread but I guess I must've messed up somehow. Anyhoo I actually expected this to be even more minimal than it is, but then again I am a techno noob.

Same here.. Especially when going out, at home I listen to the odd minimalish sets as well though. Takaaki Itoh for example is capable of throwing down a minimal set I do like.. Which is quite rare.

Would probably be safe to say you wouldn't like this Fabric one either, but of course it's best to give it a listen for yourself.
