a key component of the 1990s birmingham techno sound, and co-founder of the downwards label, female's music is as important for everything it doesn't tell you as it is for the pummeling rhythms it forces you to engage with.?! one of the few remaining examples of an artist with a palpable sense of mystique, female conjures a world that evokes film noir, or even something out of a Burroughs story.?! the language of this music will be familiar to those who listen to "dance music", but the bare building blocks are often all we get.?! development within these tracks is subtle, and it's the sense that something is being held back that gives the music its power.?! the forceful minimalism of these tracks creates a narrative that, when combined with their titles and the visual imagery of the sleeves, is at once immediate and yet feels almost impenetrable.?! this tension is what makes the music so invigorating.?!
