Since 2011, Berlin-based producer Objekt (real name TJ Hertz) has only put out a handful of singles through his own white label imprint, Hessle Audio, and Leisure System (the last being a split with the venerable Dopplereffekt). With each release, Hertz has played with elements of techno and electro, blurring the line between bass-heavy club music and something darker and more experimental. So it isn’t all that surprising that on October 20 he’ll be releasing his debut full-length Flatland on the seemingly infallible PAN label.
Comprised of tracks written between 2012 and 2014, “Flatland imagines a world in which any scene can be seen from every angle at once,” according to PAN. So you can bet your ass it’ll be better than that minimal, ignorant trash coming out of Lineland and Pointland. They have yet to understand the dimensional possibilities that Objekt does.
Flatland tracklist:
01. Agnes Revenge
02. One Fell Swoop
03. Ratchet
04. Strays
05. Agnes Apparatus
06. Dogma
07. First Witness
08. Interlude (Whodunnit?)
09. Second Witness
10. One Stitch Follows Another
11. Cataracts
