Volume three of the various artists series mod.cooperate brings you the concentrated load of fiddly techno. With 'Walk' Hemmann & Kaden, carrying the hopes of Freude am Tanzen and with the latter having had a great debut on Vakant, deliver a piece of work just like an excellent cordon bleu: crispy and savoury on the outside, delicate and tasteful on the inside -- and we haven't said a word about the filling yet! Will melt on your tongue like smooth chocolate... to be continued by Mark Henning -- using his daytime office job as inspiration for becoming chief investigator of clicky, bleepy, noisy minimal stuff at night: 'Smlatter' stands in best tradition of highly successful releases on Freude am Tanzen or Frankie. A little bit eccentric, but always grooving from below. And as we speak of groovy eccentricity, we are exactly at the point to introduce the Krause duo to Milnormodern (with one half of it, Metaboman, having given an appearance on mod.cooperate vol.2 as well): Far Eastern sounds meeting jazz meeting Krause-style. Just always straight ahead would be too easy, as we've learned through quite some Musik Krause vinyl-editions... as we are in the Far East, we can easily draw a line to the suffragettes -- three Japanese having connected as it is always more fun to make music together. Which is actually quite hearable: 'Fourquop' might be the deepest track on this mini-compilation, but it is exactly that deepness creating a very special atmosphere.
