UK techno producer Surgeon lends his clinical touch to this week's RA podcast.
It all started for Anthony Child back in 1994. He found himself in the tiny studio of ex-Napalm Death drummer Mick Harris (AKA Scorn). The two had become friends, exchanging ideas and opinions about music and film, resulting in Harris encouraging Child to use his studio to produce his first tracks. His instructions to Child? "Go mad." And that he did: The toughened industrial psychedelia of the Surgeon EP was released the following year to widespread acclaim in both the UK and Detroit techno scenes.
Further releases on Downwards, Soma, Tresor and his own Dynamic Tension and Counterbalance imprints followed, and Child continued to wow audiences at his House Of God party in his Birmingham hometown, which is still running today. His other residency during the '90s was at Berlin's now legendary Tresor club, where he'd often be found playing back-to-back with Hardwax's DJ Pete (AKA Substance). Nowadays, he's using a fully digital setup to realise his vision, and his deft selection and mixing talents are fully showcased in this week's RA podcast, which was taken from a recent live performance by the man. He'll also be playing at this month's Bloc Weekend in Minehead, where he'll be joined by fellow electronic luminaries Carl Craig, Robert Hood and Aphex Twin. We caught up with Child by e-mail to ask him about the mix, his current DJing set-up and the recent split of his British Murder Boys partnership with Downwards boss Karl O'Connor (AKA Regis).
