Sheet One

Sheet One was the first Plastikman album, written by Richie Hawtin and released in October 1993 on Novamute Records. Hawtin had previously released a first album, Dimension Intrusion, under the alias "F.U.S.E.". The front inlay of the album was perforated, giving it the look of a wall of LSD tabs. The cover was so realistic that a man in Texas was arrested when a police officer saw the CD on his car seat after pulling him over on a traffic violation Coming out of the minimal techno scene in Detroit, this album makes frequent use of the Roland TB-303, which gained prominence in the electronic music world as a staple of Chicago's acid house scene.
