One man’s polished is another man’s over-produced.

Clearly the sound of this album resonated more with the mainstream, but I always felt like the addition of so much distortion, both to the sampling and to the synth, started to get away from what I liked about the genre. The pure waves of the digital instruments are why I liked techno. I had analog genres of music if I wanted to listen to something dirty sounding.
