The techno stalwart has been at the forefront of dance music's technological shift to a more digital style of DJing, utilising Ableton Live to edit and layer his selections as well as rapidly moving from track to track. It'll be his first official mix CD since 2007's limited edition This Is For You Shits compilation on Warp, and those familiar with Child's booming and energetic sets will be glad to know that Fabric 53 follows much the same formula. Don't expect to hear strictly purist techno on the mix, however, as he's managed to fit in plenty of tracks from the dubstep sphere courtesy of Scuba, Starkey, Greena, Gatekeeper, plus some house and electro from Russ Gabriel and DJ Overdose.
Speaking about the mix, Child has commented that: "This is the music that I am enjoying and I feel it represents me; and on the other side, there were some newer or lesser known artists that I really wanted to represent. It's about making people aware of different genres, to show the likeness. It's taking T-Polar, Subeena, Ital Tek, Ancient Methods - and putting that next to Orphx, DJ Overdose and Russ Gabriel, and mixing them all up together. It's kind of strange looking at the tracklist, but for me it’s very natural the way these things fit together. And really, to me, this is all techno. That's the way I think of it; I don't subdivide genres, the beats are just slightly different places in the bar. They all have different feels and textures, but I don't differentiate, I just like all this music so I want to mix it together."
