He is for me definitely the ultimate producer and artist right after Richie Hawtin who very similarly approaches the space between Plastikman and Hawtin made alter egos at the same time. That means he can use two of his hands at the same time! Both questioning and dancable music he does everytime. Yet dark and out of this space. His tracks are always without a horizon. They are not as easy as to be labelled as an ordinary, straight forward techno release. Gaiser releases contain much more.

Gaiser is a really talented musical storyteller and you can listen his masterpiece, a soundtrack of the "Black Fade" in the 67th edition of M_nus Records, where is a main homebase for him for a long time. This album will be released as a continuous CD which i do not like usually but as it has to be understood as a whole, nothing left to say after pressing the 'play' button and listening it for the first time. Since i still would prefer to have all those nice tracks seperately, this LP gonna hit you hard. You will be isolated and your short term memory will be erased for a second. A second? How you call it, within time and space. The whole "Blank Fade" takes nearly 70 minutes.
Everything stars with "Volve". A hommage for the techno sub bass soldiers. Then comes the first snare in "Face Down" and we hit the ground with "Ground". The generator starts, as we hear it, we see some organisms passing by. "Ciliate With" is the face climax of the LP. We have lots more to see and hear.

Maybe we will have this LP in  a digital version rather than vinyl because the 2x12" version will have just the most dance floor oriented 7 versions of the 13 tracked debut. With Butane, Someone Else and some other young producers, Gaiser is on the league for dark, machine oriented, cold hearted electronic music which we love always. With a continuously paddling baseline and groove, Gaiser's music reaches to the climax on the last track "Outline", entering to the borders of Ezekiel Honig or Raster Noton and concluding the album. But you feel like hearing the sentence "to be continued...". In his debut LP, Gaiser is in charge of a big dark cloud which he is also able to control it. He makes thunders simultaneously made up of 'klang's and we hear them as electronic music, mainly techno. But infact it is from outer space and an exercise for any human being who is willing to enter to the experimental dark world of elecxtronic music. Welcome to the "Black Fade". The abyss made up of a techno gaiser by Jon Gaiser.
