Heavily frozen in house, Larkin quickly incorporated techno's formal characteristics into a brazen-yet-refined style that places his medicine somewhere in betwixt Detroit and Chicago, combine house's more swinging rhythmic vibe and soft edge with techno's hefty backbeat and experimental zeal. He released a couple of 12-inches -- "We Shall Overcome" and "Integration" -- on the Richie Hawtin/John Acquaviva label Plus 8 in the early '90s before moving on to tone ending material through Buzz, Warp, and R&S. Massively influential on British and German, as well as American strains of techno, his tracks have appeared on a number of celebrated compilations documenting new-school Detroit talent.
