Hello.
Haven't seen anyone else comment on the new Juan Atkins album, so I
thought I'd get the ball rolling.
artist :: model 500
title :: mind and body
label :: r&s records
cat :: rs99145cd
date :: 1999
tracks :: psychosomatic 06m15s
everyday 09m14s
incredible 06m24s
in and out 05m43s
rain 05m58s
tipsy 05m50s
just maybe 05m29s
mind and body 06m17s
be brave 05m02s
it's time 04m15s
There's a nice range of styles on offer here -- all the old Juan
Atkins trademarks are there, effortlessly mixed into fresh, modern
styling. There's sharp/caustic noise; slow/mellow trances;
classic/detroit melodies; chilled/ambient dub; crunchy/funky jazz;
etc.
Nice Designers Republic graphics too, similar to their stuff for Sun
Electric's Via Nostra. The inlay features multi-textured graphics and
text that requires the case/inlay to be tilted to specific angles in
order for it to be readable.
Well worth checking out.
