Haunt Me Haunt Me, Do It Again

Tim Hecker is better known as his alter ego, techno maverick, Jetone. Under that name he has released full-lengths for both Force Inc. and Pitch Cadet. This marks the first release under the artist’s real name, and it's a leap away from techno, exploring his interest in structured ambient sound. Here he has constructed strong ambient pieces using computer, guitar, and piano and treated the material digitally, resulting in some of the most memorable ambient music in the last few years.

There are certainly similarities to the likes of Angelo Badlementi, Fennesz, Gas, and Oval, but overall the sound is incredibly unique. Much like the Austrian guitar/lap top experimentalist Fennesz, Hecker has perfected the art of catchy experimental ambient music.
