i heard anthony rothers remix of "trashscapes" a long time ago and i liked it since it was when rother still made bumping electro funk musics. heard the original much later and i do believe i didn't like it at the time since i thought it sounded like bad electroclash. the twisted guitars and distorted sounds on that dirty beat was not my thing but that changed.
flash forward to some months ago and i rediscovered the track and now it made sense again but i found a new favourite version. even though i still like rothers remix and the original, the kid606 remix was stunning. considering it was kid606 i expected something else, basically i thought he would deconstruct and twist the track around like a pretzel but it's actually quite straightforward banging techno. infact the apparat remix sounds more like what kid606 would normally do but i don't think it's that good actually
my good friend jan henrik has informed me that kid606 is quite skilled at making dancemusic that isn't fucked up. it's probably all depending on type of mood he's feeling or what he is set to do. on a glance it's "trashscapes" with a four on the floor and a driving bassline but it is more than that. there is so much going on in this track that i can't fathom how he managed to control all the chaos. that's the power of good techno.
