FAXology by Mick Chillage

"FAXology" was my debut for the legendary Fax records, home to some of the greatest names in electronica like Klaus Schulze, Biosphere, Ritchie Hawtin, Anthony Rother, Move D, and of course label boss Namlook himself and many many more.. As the title suggests "Faxology" is a collection of Fax inspired works and was released on the eve of the labels 20th anniversary.

Over the years "FAXology" has been falsely presumed & stated by some people online that the album was possibly created with the use of sound samples from various Fax releases or that Pete had commissioned the album to be created as an homage to his label.

All of the sounds and musical compositions were created from scratch on various synths & Pete was not aware of the album until the demo was sent to him. The album demo was untitled and after some lengthy discussions back and fourth Pete suggested "FAXology" as a title and I agreed.

Official release statement from Pete Namlook

"This is the debut of Mick Chillage on FAX. Pete Namlook: "When I first heard the demo I was blown away... I was wondering if this was a live show of Tetsu Inoue and me ..." so close and yet a very own creation of music that it totally reminds of the 90ies music that made FAX +49-69/450464 a trademark in Electronic Music. Right before the 20th anniversary this album came at the right time forming a great and fresh reminiscence of what for Pete is part of his past, present and future"

"FAXology" on CD has now become a rare Item with occasional copies popping up at ebay and discogs etc..
