  • This fall, French techno artist Terence Fixmer will release his next album via Speedy J's Electric Deluxe label. Entitled Comedy of Menace, the album refers to the English playwright Harold Pinter, who tried not only to amuse but also to intimidate and frighten his audience–an idea that clearly appeals to Fixmer based on the sound of his output to date. Since the late '90s, he has has pushed a dark, thudding brand of techno that takes inspiration from EBM outfits like Front 242 and Nitzer Ebb, releasing on imprints like Music Man, International Deejay Gigolos, and Data Punk. Comedy of Menace shows Fixmer staying true to form with ten monolithic, industrial-tinged club tunes. The record will be the first artist album for Speedy J's Electric Deluxe imprint. Tracklist 01. Dark Line 02. Things are Over 03. Impakt 04. Drastik 05. Phantoms 06. Breathless 07. My Experimentation 08. Alert 09. Dance Like Paranoid 10. Last Heroes Electric Deluxe will release Terence Fixmer's Comedy of Menace on September 27th, 2010.
