Clubsessel
July 22, 2006I picked Clubsessel’s self-titled album late last year but haven’t given it a close listen until now. It’s pretty good. Darker, subdued deeper techno, although more toward the IDM and downtempo spectrum of things as opposed to straight-up dancefloor material. It’s also pretty minimal, but not clipped, glitchy and cut-up like the kind of stuff Mille Plateaux is known for.
Anyway, Clubsessel is more popularly known as misc., under which alias they’ve recorded a butt-ton of stuff on Sender, and I pretty much can’t stand most of it. They’ve also recorded as Niederflur on M_nus, with some very … well, minimal work suited to that label’s aesthetic.
You could say that Clubsessel is the IDM/Downtempo component of the Niederflur alias.
Oh and in other news Richie Hawtin’s disappeared so far up his own anus that you can’t even refer to his label as Minus anymore, it’s M_nus. Christ.
