4.0 out of 5 stars Just what I've always wanted..., 28 Oct 2003

By	Mickey Sabbath (London) - See all my reviews

Its probably fair to say that anyone reading this review will have at least a passing familiarity with either Plastikman or Richie Hawtin. In that case I have no hesitation in telling you to BUY THIS. Yeah sure, Plastikman can be an acquired taste, but this album (after 5 long years) is just what an electronic/techno fan needs. Its not as heavy as Hawtin's recent Cocoon album with Sven Vath, neither is it as experimental as DE9: Closer to the edit. What it is is a techno album by a master at the peak of his powers. Just when you think you've got it sussed, along comes the next track to blow all your preconceptions out of the water (Disconnect is very special with the bass up).
Only 4 stars cos it doesnt exactly push boundaries, merely beats every other contender hands down for techno album of the year.

4.0 out of 5 stars plastikman closer, 4 Oct 2003

By	Mr. A. F. Kelly "converseuk" (Scotland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Closer [VINYL] (Audio CD)

plastikmans last studio album consumed was a dark ambient journey through a void far removed from any dancefloor.
the new cd,closer,begins where consumed left off with a similar sound although with a more structured and beat driven sound.
although still not aimed at the dancefloor his beats will have your head in a spin.
closer as an album sits comfortably between the more uptempo works of musik and the more eerie soundscape of consumed. this is a recommended purchase for plastikman fans and also people into quality electronica but it is certainlt not one of plastikmans more dancefloor friendly productions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Evolution of Plastikman?, 18 Oct 2004

By	iamtheconspirator - See all my reviews

For me Plastikman has never been a techno artist, nor music to dance to - it's what I like to think of as Head Music, cerebral if you will. Hawtin under his Plastikman guise manages to create perhaps the most individual style of music in the electronic arena, and this album takes his unique brilliance one stage further. Not as purely inspired as Musik, nor as moodily dark as Consumed, Closer still manages to pull me into the musical experience like those two albums. It seems a more minimal album than his previous ones, but as always the real artistry of Plastikman lays in the amazing details which he crafts underneath the main driving force of the music, and you have to crank the volume to really appreciate the music in its entirety - apparently Hawtin constructs the music at ear-splitting levels, so a high replay volume would seem appropriate. I was worried when I heard of the vocals, and on first listen they seem awkward on top of the music, but repeated listening has since changed my mind. Is Hawtin still translating his acid experiences into music? It would appear so, and I think he has reached the next level of his musical language.
