 ║▓║ ║  Thomas Brinkmann has said that, while fellow producers and peers      ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  Mike Ink and Richie Hawtin have their hearts stuck in the '80s, his   ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  own is somewhere in the '70s. Out of all of Brinkmann's releases and  ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  concepts, nothing demonstrates that notion more than Soul Center. A   ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  cryptic list of acknowledgements accompanies the track listing,       ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  giving respect to some apparent sampling sources, most of which are   ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  Detroit-based. The Temptations, the Four Tops, Martha Reeves, and     ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  even the Undisputed Truth are listed, as are influences like techno   ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  producers Shake, Claude Young, and Dan Bell. One might describe the   ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  record as a skeletal, crisp, head-on collision between minimal        ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  techno and '70s funk and soul. And it's not as if this merely has     ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  its sights aimed on Detroit, either. The Staple Singers are heard     ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  here and there, and only Brinkmann could tell you exactly where       ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  everything originates. Often, he comes up with his own stiff rhythms  ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  and adds vocal snippets -- sometimes one word and sometimes only a    ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  grunt -- as well as manipulated shards of percussion. "Ain't No" is   ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  the most mesmerizing of this bunch; completely free of a bass line    ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  for most of its duration, the track is a tornadic sculpture of        ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  circular swirls of percussion and handclaps, with minute guitar       ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  flicks placed ever so perfectly. "Let's Go," featuring a number of    ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  vocal samples, actually has more in common with '80s electro than     ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  anything else. Regardless, it's just as thrilling as every other      ║ ║▓║
 ║▓║ ║  track.s                                                               ║ ║▓║
