Search - DJ T-1000 :: Progress

Even the most casual partygoer has doubtlessly at some point heard the music suddenly go dead and be replaced by a booming voice announcing the greatest talent on tables... This is the voice of DJ T-1000: Alan Oldham. A Detroit Original from way back, the undeniably magnetic personality that is Oldham's has been heard throughout the world since 1992. Oldham is more a composer than your normal producer, successfully combining all his life experience into musical testament: a rare capability in the world of loops and samples. With admitted influences ranging from Massive Attack and Timbaland to Juan Atkins, Oldham's output has taken down the borders, combined the concepts and blended the elements into autobiographical narrative. Progress denotes just that: from the beatless moody film music of "Berlin" to the knock-down, slow-grind seduction of "Tonight", this album covers all bases: transmissions of looped minimalism for the purists and for those into the deeper and more abstract. DJ T-1000 has turned out a flexible document of very personal meaning: the key to the biggest personality in Techno. Get down, make love.
