with his releases on labels such as Fat!, Fakt and his own imprint, Xeton Recordings. Served in ‘Vocal’ and ‘Dub’ flavours, ‘Contact by Satellite’ is very ‘now’-sounding. A lovely slab of deep, proggy tech seasoned with smoke-machine hisses, its distinctive, pitch-bent synth motif married to a squelching acid bass is perfect for messing with people’s heads while still helping them get a groove on at strange o’clock in the morning. The main difference between the two mixes is simply a robot voice which declares “Contact By Satellite” every so often – nothing too intrusive, but I have to say, I prefer the tune without it.
