I IS FOR INKY BLACKNUSS

Featuring the early talents of Andrea Parker (see previously), Inky blacknuss made dark, minimal, foreboding, offbeat techno. They were released on Weatherall-related Sabrettes label.

 

From NME: A highly regarded techno duo comprising Alex Knight, a DJ and proprietor of London’s Fat Cat record store, fellow DJ Andrea Parker and engineer Ian Tregonim. The latter, who handles production, was for many years responsible for Yello’s engineering. Parker takes charge of mixing, while Knight looks after percussion. Together they made a strong impression on their debut 1993 release, “Blacknuss’, on the Sabrettes imprint, which was awarded the New Musical Express” hastily improvised “Filthy, Dirty, Techno Thing Of The Week” award. Dark and foreboding, its menacing ambience was recreated by a follow-up release, “Drumulator”. Utilizing backwards synthesizer sounds and natural noises, Parker described her interests as being “anything that blows the speaker up”.

 

From the only two 12″s they released in 1993/94:

 

Inky Blacknuss – Blacknuss (Audience Mix)
