Artist: Ben Klock
Titel: Remixes
(Robert Hood | Function- Regis | Kenny Larkin)
Label: OstGut Ton
Cat.No.: o-ton 26
Release Date: 10 August 2009
Distribution: Kompakt

After Ben Klock’s debut album „One“ has been welcomed warmly by Techno land
earlier this year, we now proudly present a breath taking remix package expanding
Ben’s spectrum to include even more nuances. The cast of Robert Hood, Regis &
Function and Kenny Larkin truly leaves nothing to be desired.
Detroit master of Minimal Techno Rob Hood injects his very own sound into „Goodly
Sin“: Here, a huge kick drum cheers for ultra accurate, crystal clear synth stabs and
fragments of Elif Biçer voice, turning the song oriented original into a massive Techno
stomper with swiveling hips – first class a-side material.
On the flip, Regis & Function (aka Sandwell District) prove once again that they are
the first choice when it comes to rhythmically challenging Techno. Their rework of
„Subzero“, originally released on Klock’s „Before One“ EP, clearly shows the duo is
one of the links between Techno and Dubstep at the moment. Their take on surgical,
crisp and cold latenight Techno also stands in the tradition of the old Chain Reaction
and Downwards school.
Last but not least, Kenny Larkin has gone for the other Klock Track featuring Elif
Biçer’s voice, „OK“. Compared to the original, his remix goes into the thick of things.
The bulky beat and dramtically  longing strings are caressed by sweet piano patterns
making for the quiet centre of this outstanding track. As far as we’re concerned, Mr.
Larkin delivers once again.
