Let's talk about that minimal Berlin club sound via Berghain staple, Ben Klock.
We trace the roots of house & techno in the US. Unpack and untangle influences traveling back and forth across the Atlantic. Dig into repetition and our perception of time. Layers on layers on layers. Unravel.
CORRECTION: In the podcast Aaron has a slip and credits "Minimal Nation" to Carl Craig instead of Robert Hood - whoops, sorry!
