Operation: Mixtape

Surgeon - This is for you shits! [Warp, 2007] (buy)
Great mixtape from Surgeon. This is a wonderful one hour showcase of techno's more experimental sides. Dabbling with the very fringes of the dance sound, as one would suspect when it's released on Warp. Brutal waves of murderous textures blended with occassional glimpses of artful melodies. The first half of this is really quite something, I recognize most of the tracks but they all got a new costume courtesy of Surgeon and his blending techniques. Quality all they way through.
