很不错的minimal techno/house，除了鲜明的minimal节奏外，还带有冰冷的ambient dub气氛。这样的乐风大多认为与Basic Channel / Chain Reaction这两个德国techno label接近。Exos是Arnvidur Snorrason，来自冰岛。主要在Thule这个冰岛厂牌发行作品。

EXOS is one the leading producers of Iceland's techno and electronic label
THULE. After having released several maxis on THULE and one maxis on FORCE
INC. ELEVENTH is the first full length album. The album contains 13 tracks
of advanced dance material. It is minimal techno, under the premise that a
discourse of written rules defines the music and the programs in content.
But it is also more. Music with a hypnotic flow and the coolness of the
northern electronic scene. EXOS tracks give a spatial dimension to techno;
keyboard patterns with echoes and delays are combined with an intense
groove. Don't expect the sound of Berlin, it is coolness, not darkness. But
it is not only the coolness of Iceland, it is a soundtrack also for the
urban. EXOS even reflects the speed of the hypercities, the desires of a
technogeneration, which finds their subjectivication in the body. Becoming
molecular, becoming a non organic body, becomings; EXOS music is the
perfect statement, programmed, calculated and simulated. Constructed for
the needs of the machine generation, for the clubs but also for listening
areas. The fusion of harmony and sound in favor of the production of
properly rhythmic values. It is not the continuous variation like in other
forms of electronic, but it is also more than the reproduction of
distinctive forms, which Techno normally is. It is the perfect sounddesign
for techno 2000.
