Review: He/aT is another project from Chris Finke, the UK DJ/producer responsible for the Bodyjack alias. As this release on Bas Mooy's label shows, it is dedicated to gritty, lo-fi techno and a disregard for political correctness. Both of these values are in abundance on opening track "I've Never Been To Bed With An Ugly Girl But I've Woken Up With A Few". Loose, industrial drums beat manically as Finke grapples with droning textures. "Live & Don't Learn" is similarly minded with acrid acid lines unfolding over a primitive backing, while on the title track, Finke delivers a slightly more conventional loop techno workout. It's only a temporary blip though and "Thy Will Be Done" is a wonky arrangement that recalls the offbeat brilliance of Neil Landstrumm.
