Over 70 Tracks Featuring Richie Hawtin, Plastikman, Fuse, Carl Craig, Stewart Walker, T. Brinkmann, Basic Channel, Ricardo Villalobos, Baby Ford...

"After recording, sampling, cutting, and splicing over 100 tracks down into their basic components, I ended up with a collection of over 300 loops, ranging in length from 1 note to 4 bars. I then started to recreate and reinterpret each track, putting the pieces back together as if an audio jigsaw puzzle - using effects and edits as the glue in between each piece. This 53 minute piece, consisting of over 70 tracks and 31 ID points, represents what those loops became, and how their interactions created something that had not existed before." Richie Hawtin
