Against Nature
Normally known as Regis and Female respectively, Karl O’Connor and Peter Sutton come together to record their first ever work outside of their own staunchly independent Downwards stamp.
Normally known as Regis and Female respectively, Karl O’Connor and Peter Sutton come together to record their first ever work outside of their own staunchly independent Downwards stamp.
Unsurprisingly, they’ve opted to release it on German label Tresor, home to all things harsh and looped. It’s a difficult uncompromising work: interspersed with abstract, and classical string-filled passages, O’Connor and Sutton drop dense, looped techno floor slayers.
At times it sounds fresh, especially on ‘Let Them Bleed’ where repetitive clicking rhythms straddle a hypnotic groove, but they often fall foul of following a one dimensional jackhammer techno trail, and, with UK techno artists like Oliver Ho and James Ruskin really pushing the envelope, standing still isn’t an option.
