Title:	Fabric 08
Label:	FABRIC (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	FABRIC 015CD

2002 release. "Keith Tenniswood has been behind and upfront on a variety of dance music's most-cherished productions. Growing up he was a Hendrix-head amongst the early eighties electro craze, and as a teenager frequented parties on London's 'Drum Club' scene. He'd later meet the Sabresonic and Full Circle crews and begin work as an In-House Engineer for Sabres of Paradise, whilst working with other members of the tight-knit dance community. He's credited by David Holmes, Beth Orton, The Aloof, Red Snapper, Primal Scream, Jon Carter and Barry Ashworth, testament to an all-encompassing production aptitude and a musical open-mindedness. Partnering Andrew Weatherall in 2 Lone Swordsmen, Keith's alter-ego, Radioactive Man, is an outlet for his solo work. 'I wanted to capture our 'Haywire at Fabric' spirit. That can be anything from breaks to techno to electro to some housey vibes, even finishing up with some drum and bass. Whatever, the CD had to be really pumping from start-to-finish: no messing around' - Radioactive Man. This is techno changing state. Using Detroit's 'electro future sound' and the UK's 'Industrial' movement as very loose inspiration, Tenniswood uses 17 tracks in creating a lava-hot, headstrong trip. Dot Allison's vocals and Sweetie's twisted bliss meet The Swordsmen's edge, Takeover Sound bring Motor City grooves, Depth Charge work the percussion and Imatran Voima plays it straight. Koma and Bones merge frequencies and filters; Jammin drops things deep; Anthony Rother spaces-out; and Basic Unit strip things back. The big bass hit of Radioactive Man's 'Ave That' is rewound then re-thought by Tim Wright before Tim's beat-defying 'Going Down' clashes into The Kitbuilders' stealth pop. Disco D and Princess Superstar stamp all over Dirty Hospital for a head-rushing finish. Spun-back and quickly-cut, this is a thunderstruck blend of spark-inducing electro beats."

Title:	The Uranium EP
Label:	ROTTERS GOLF CLUB (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$9.00
Catalog #:	RGC 003CD

"R.G.C. O.G. Brother Tenniswood dons the mask and cape of his alter-ego Radioactive Man for a four track EP that goes right to the core of the reactor. An album and remix EP (featuring Bass Junkie and Transparent Sounds) will follow this first transmission 'The Mezz' will ride again... RadioActive Man has, between bouts laying down the sinuous underpinning of the Two Lone Swordsmen output, been crafting the tunes that make up the 'Uranium EP' for the last 12 months, fine tuning them in a live setting. RadioActive Man likes crashing the odd wagon, Foundry work and strong booze."
