Up
Up is a later release by Tao Groove. This period of intense attention to bass and beat came after the Unification event at Motor Lounge in Detroit. The event was just prior to the closing of Motor, so they atmosphere was relaxed and destructive. After cranking his booth monitor hotter than normal, the right booth monitor caught fire, and shortly thereafter, the whole right sub stack went out.
Live Performances (Detroit Techno)
Tao Groove live performances were rare. Mainly because he disliked public appearances, but also because of the extensive setup time an event required, as all live music was made uniquely for the event.
Joe Normal
This release is more tangential into some drum experiments. Some of it is barebones and ugly, like Bump Original while other tracks are laid back and rubby.
