Check out this video for Richie Hawtin's “The Tunnel” and get a glimpse of the future as envisioned by this techno innovator: Austere, minimalistic bloops; warped bleeps; mechanized, spaceship door sounds; brisk, no-nonsense 4/4 beats; sterile room; animated geometric shapes doing enigmatic things; emotionless, fainting Hawtin. It's as if somebody totally enamored of 2001: A Space Odyssey created this video. Rather quaint, really.
Unfortunately, Stanley Kubrick is unavailable for comment…
