Cactus
The A-side of Hessle Audio's HES019, written and produced by Objekt.
Objekt, from Cactus / Porcupine (2012)
"Cactus" was released on Hessle Audio on 12-inch in February 2012, 5:56 by Bandcamp's listing, written and produced by Objekt and mastered by Stuart Hawkes. Hertz told The Quietus in 2013 that it was intended as a Rusko pastiche. Resident Advisor's notes on his 2018 podcast describe it as dubstep-influenced, against the later techno of "CLK Recovery". A search snippet claims its bass drop was a standout of a Ben UFO Rinse mix before the official release, which we could not confirm.
We found no recording date, personnel beyond Hertz, chart entry, video, cover or sample, and setlist.fm shows 49 Objekt sets without song lists, so there is no play count. We could not tell whether our upload is the original or a cut from a DJ mix.
