Techniques v1
MOL017 (Molecular)
12" (December 1998)

(A1) Altitude
(B1) Collision (B2) Gyration

"I like 2 tracks. One has a very trippy synth sound over a dry flat kick. The synth noise adds some harmonics later... similar to some of his other recent work, it's not quite melodic, but is more than just a loop.. and very dark. This track also has an effect on the hi hat where it seems to go off phase or beat every now and then, but to good effect. It's basically the same thing as playing doubles of a record and slowing down one slightly to make it seem off, then sliding it back into beat. the other track I like is more of a hypnotic pounder.. It has some more dark moody loops in the background. It has a filtered 909 ride cymbal with fx, but it's also very subdued.. good stuff."

"Veteran Molecular signing, Inigo Kennedy, continues to release his unique brand of underground techno. If it's peak time material you're looking for, then head straight for 'Altitude' (A1). Flip over and drop the pitch control to minus six-ish and treat yourself to 'Collision' and 'Gyration', two cuts of subtly constructed grooves, full of rhythm variations and sonic fx."
Mixmag Update Magazine

"Three rough, unforgiving hard loops trax from Inigo in the Cold Dust vein. Brutally effective."
Magic Feet Magazine

"'Altitude' is a driving tune! Using incessant running beaty beats, mechanical spare-parts drawer jiggling, and a pulsing crumpled klaxon set against a ululating jet drone. 'Collision' pounds the doubled beats deeply, as poppin video game bleeps joggle by clattering clicks that come and go. 'Gyration' stomps with beaty beats and whirls around you with muted layers of deeply embedded sounds streams of brushy percussion, bleeps, clicky sticks, etc. take you deeper into the vibe."
Technotica

"SLAMIING THREE TRACKER ON THE PURE CLUB TECHNO SIDE OF THINGS. LARGE AND DEFINITELY ONE TO MOVE QUITE A LOT OF PEOPLE."
Smallfish

"Well respected at home and abroad Inigo Kennedy, brings you his brand of the electronic medley. This release features a technoir sound."
Bi-Wire

"Tekno that hits hard and rolls with some pretty mental electroid sounds and biting percussion. Each track offers something different and sports lots of moves and thundering energy. Tracks include: Altitude/ Collision & Gytation."
