Martin Buttrich – I Lost My Wallet / Again

Posted on 24. Oct, 2008 by EmirS in Martin Buttrich


Although most people don’t know much about him, as he’s always been in a shadow of other producers and didn’t release much solo releases, Martin Buttrich is undeniably one of the most talented producers, making collaborations with well-known artists like Loco Dice and Timo Maas for years.
His latest release for the Germany’s finest minimal/techno label, Cocoon Recordings, called I Lost My Wallet/Again, will probably cause divided opinions. Although it cannot be denied that both tracks are quality production, most of the listeners will get confused when listening to these two tracks because of their similarity.
The only profound difference is maybe that Again sounds a bit funky, but if you listen carefully, you’ll realise that both are built around the same techy bassline and riff. The breakdown is almost the same, the only difference in the structures of these two is that Again develops faster than I Lost My Wallet, but again I hardly believe that you’ll be able to recognize which one of two is being played if someone pulls this EP from the case.
To conclude, I recommend this release to every minimal techno lover, but I believe Buttrich can do much better.
