“A series of feedback loops. A modular synth triggers the drummer, and the drummer alters the parameters of the synth by reacting to it with his playing – the exchange is perpetual. The pressure from the speakers propels bodies into motion. Kinetic energy. Critical mass. Limbs cut through the chunky sound rattling the bass cabinets like percussive vectors/blades. The man sitting behind the kit picks up on what’s happening below, and locks in. As his playing adjusts, the modular responds and a new feedback loop commences.

Arthur Hnatek is an electronica producer and jazz drummer who specialises in an expansive, analog-synth-driven type of dance music. His productions are rooted in a visceral dialogue between the acoustic drums and highly-reactive modulars (often set to random). In a live situation he deconstructs, remixes, and reassembles his own work by manipulating it with the grammar and syntax of a prolific DJ. In other words: the man knows how to rock a party!” (L.P.)
