• Thomas Brinkmann - RA Podcast 143 •

Cologne experimentalist Thomas Brinkmann bangs it out on this week's RA podcast.




Cologne's Thomas Brinkmann needs no introduction. As one of techno's foremost experimental minds, he's bridged the gap between the conceptual and the physical with seminal releases such as Studio 1 - Variationen and Concept 1:96:VR. Using a dual-armed turntable he crafted himself, Brinkmann transformed Wolfgang Voigt and Richie Hawtin's releases into haunting, beautiful and danceable masterpieces of minimal techno and, as one writer termed them, "key works of modern art."

Since the mid-'90s, Brinkmann has spent much of his time focused on his Max Ernst label, an imprint that has churned out some of the most fascinating post-electronic albums of the past decade by artists like TBA Empty, Post Industrial Boys and Brinkmann himself. On his RA podcast, though, Brinkmann goes straight for the feet, unveiling a wild ride through funky minimalism with a hypnotic quality that stays with you long after the last beat drops. From Michael Jackson remixes to those aforementioned Post Industrial Boys, it's one you won't soon forget.
