by Andy KellmanSwedish producer Anders Ilar makes tracks that fall toward the dark and wintry side of micro-house and ambient techno. In 2002, he released Replik for Germanys Shitkatapult, a beat-oriented three-track 12 that showed great promise. He followed that up with the excellent full-length Everdom in 2003, also released on Shitkatapult. Unlike the preceding 12, it focused more heavily on beatless constructs while retaining a subzero chill. (The vinyl version contained only four tracks; the CD version featured six.) Ilar has also produced as Outsize for the Swedish Pinesky and as Rend for the German Plong.
