THROTTLE TECHNO CELEBRATES 1 YEAR WITH JEFF MILLS AKA THE WIZARDThe Techno Pioneer Jeff Mills aka The Wizard Blazes a Trail to Space, and Beyond using techno as his rocket. Jeff Mills, along with Robert Hood, Carl Craig, and Joey Beltram, is one of the biggest American names in techno. Championed for his music’s relentless pursuit of hardness and his intense, almost industrial DJ sets (often utilizing three or four turntables or CD decks and a drum machine), Mills is one of the most significant figures in a long line of Detroit-bred talent to earn an international reputation.
Mills’ 1990s discography includes two full-length volumes of Waveform Transmissions for Tresor, a frenetic live album (Live at the Liquid Room, Tokyo) and rarities collection (The Other Day) for the British label React, an album on Sony Japan (From the 21st), as well as a truckload of 12″ EPs on Axis and several collaborations with Robert Hood on his M-Plant label. 1998’s Purpose Maker Compilation collected Mills tracks from Axis’ sub-label Purpose Maker, including “The Bells,” which is one of techno’s most iconic, inescapable tunes.
He continued his unstoppable run of spacy, science fiction-inspired full-lengths, as well as more club-focused 12″ EPs, often on Axis or related labels. Many of these releases were chapters of a conceptual story titled The Sleeper Wakes.
Time and space fold into rhythm, you can’t tell if you are in the future or melting into the past. The Wizard is in control.
