Don’t Be So Mean

(Process/ Discomania) Dieser grimmige, alte Bube aus New York hat inzwischen zwei Jahrzehnte Techno mitgemacht. Und er hat in dieser Zeit reichlich Höhen- aber auch Tiefenluft geschnuppert. Jene Tage, in denen er in Wien bei Cheap Records oder in Helsinki bei Sähko abhing, schimmern im aktuellen Material ebenso durch wie die Einflüsse seines Wiederentdeckers DJ Hell. Denn Anfang der 00er Jahre hatte Abe Duque schon fast den Technonagel an die blecherne Wandverkleidung gehängt; nur um kurz nach DJ Hells Weckruf Größen wie Kraftwerk, Miss Kittin oder die Pet Shop Boys zu remixen. Hier auf „Don’t Be So Mean“ ist nicht alles für den Floor. Aber wie Abe Duque die Stimmungsnuancen kontrolliert
(sogar einmal Debussy ganz unaufgeregt technofiziert), zeugt von großem Handwerk, das in große Basstrommeln und in vollkommen souverän anziehende Tracks mündet.

But the first track taken from Abe Duque's new album Don't Be So Mean, the Obama-sampling Tonight Is Your Answer, is political but far from pessimistic.

It's a reflection of Abe's chequered life. He's been both a US Marine and a resident DJ at New York's notorious club-kid 90s-club Limelight. He knows how to operate the machine gun on the cover of the album, but wishes there was less call for gunfire. He's been arrested for potential terrorism - but for being found with a knife issued to him by the US government itself.

Don't be so mean, as the expression goes ...
