‘Tonkotsu Factory’, such an aptly named release that can be so stark, sometimes Industrial, always techno and always tasty.
From the title track, with its lo-fi machine like sounds, funky droning basses and galloping percussion to ‘Minimarhythm’, track 2, introduced by a gurgling bassline, pumping kick and machine driven percussion that builds and builds. To the final track, ‘Typhoon’, a minimal edged track that grinds its way to the DJ Warp trademark breakdown that introduces a synth line and percussion that will hit the dancefloor with galeforce devastation and tear it up all over again when the ‘aftermath’ kicks in.
The ‘Tonkotsu Factory EP’ serves it up to you non-stop on a conveyor belt of funk! Tasty.
Styles: Techno – Funky, Minimalistic, Hard












Very nice EP. This is ‘minimal’ at it’s best ;)

comment by Nina P on 12 March 2009Every track on this package is a killer… I really love this stuff.. This is hard minimal techno as it should be .. not glitchy not soft, the real stuff, cross between Joey Beltram, Adam Beyer and Luke Slater of the 90’s.. but most definitely Warp’s style of 2009 …. I’m kind of lost for words right now…
