Last week, Mutek returned for its 15th year.

FACT’s US team (Chris Kelly, John Twells, and Bryan McKay) were camped out in Montreal for the festivities, and interviewed some of the most talented artists in the experimental electronic music world.

We went back and forth with Tectonic boss Rob Ellis, aka Pinch, and talked about the evolution of the label, his future plans, and the shifting hardcore continuum.
