 The Black Dog Is Back June 11, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
The Black Dog are regarded by many as some of the most influential figures on the British Electronic scene, and indeed, their name has become almost synonymous with the rise of electronic music in the UK in the last two decades. This group of musicians were largely responsible for pioneering the IDM genre.
Their classic 'Parallel', 'Bytes' and 'Spanners' albums literally created new fields of music and bewildered critics back in the 90s. The Black Dog created credible work in response to the transatlantic development of the Detroit techno scene. The Black Dog never did what was expected of them, and have always managed to stay one step ahead of the crowd, something which has become part of their intrinsic allure.
Book Of Dogma, is the eagerly awaited compilation showcasing some of Ken Downie, Ed Handley and Andy Turner's finest classics and is really a must-have for all techno enthusiasts.
With this double CD album, it is clear that techno's forefathers are back to deliver some classic Dogisms, re-mastered to perfection and released through Soma records, a label as forward-thinking as the group themselves.
The debut EP from the act, "Virtual", marked a pivotal moment in electronic music as sounds inherited from dub reggae and ambient were fused with techno and house. The three tracks from the EP - "Virtual", "The Weight" and `Ambience With Teeth' - illustrated The Black Dog's ethic, to create truly innovative bodies of work that were as ground-breaking as they were enjoyable. It is these tracks which form the first CD of this release, re-mastered and as good as new.
The second disc unleashes the groundbreaking 1995 album "Parallel" on a new generation of techno fans. The title track is a piece of musical perfection, layers of sound form an expansive multi-tonality soundscape. Other classics are showcased, the funky bass lines of "Erb", the confusion of "Vanttool" and dark ambience of "Virtual Hmmm"
Testament to the dedication of it's creators, Book of Dogma concludes with a stunning new remix of the album's opening track, "Virtual"
This album is a fast paced and decisive reminder that the pioneering collective remains unparalleled - The Black Dog is back, and its teeth are sharper than ever.
