The art of minimalism and reduction is one of the
challenging difficulties in music making. Only a select
group of artists pulled it off to create strong timeless
minimal pieces that are still relevant in todays music
environment. Think Jeff Mills, Rob Hood, Terrence Dixon,
Daniel Bell, Ectomorph, BC, Mika Vainio... to just name a
few. The art of reduction is like fine Italian food; Good
basics and limited ingredients. Seasoning is mostly used
to cover up bad taste. Pametex is one of those cats that
made music without the 'seasoning' of todays techniques.
In the surprisingly short productive period (around 2000
when he co-produced with I-f in the Murdercapital
heydays), he just wrote a bunch of tracks on a rhythm
box, synth and a sequencer recorded straight to tape.
What came out is now known in inner circles as highlights
from electro's second wave. Respected and favourited by
lots of artists and serious music collectors. We are really
honoured to serve you with the last pieces of the puzzle.
Lost tracks from the dusty PMTX vaults. Recovered from
the original tapes by Chris Callahan. A special in 2 parts
(FR001R and FR030) to celebrate hitting the number 30
of the Frustrated Funk catalog. Minimalism from a true
musical mastermind.
