Otis Nugatory Schizoid d&b at its finest! This album doesn't disappoint; pensive as well as expansive, it lives up to its nearly-univeral positive reviews. Enthralling, frenetic, thought- and booty-provoking music that rewards upon repeat listens; recommended to anyone who likes weird music, and if you don't like weird music, what are you doing on BC?

David Taylor One of my favorite albums of all time. I swear, if I had the money, I’d license it and make such a lovely vinyl pressing of it, even if I had to hold onto every copy for myself. KFW has called it overrated, and he is most certainly entitled to his opinion, but it is a wonderfully dense and brutal distillation of his influences aligned with breakcore beats. Definitive desert island disc. Absolutely perfect!

about

"In the spring of 1997 I began to work at Forced Exposure. Inspired by the great number of DIY artists and labels that FE distributed, I decided to form a label called Reckankreuzungsklankewerkzeuge, compiled all of the concise breakbeat-themed sketches and short attention-span experiments that had been languishing on DAT, and, in April of 1998, released an LP called "Attention: Cats."

The success of the LP, and the subsequent interest in my break-cutup experiments led me to compile my 11 favorite full-length tracks into a CD, "Oiseaux 96-98", which was released in August of 1999 to great reviews and much interest from those tired of the "by the numbers" approach to electronic dance music.

The adage, "You have your whole life to make your first album, and a year to make the second" felt particularly apt, and it wasn't until 2002 that another full-length album of music by Hrvatski was released, this time on Mike Paradinas' Planet µ label.

By this time I had already begun focusing my efforts on recording and performing more abstract, less rhythm-based music, and had begun releasing records under my own name of digital minimalism and improvised guitar-computer pieces. I occasionally revisit the moniker for remix requests and the occasional single or compilation track."
