My Take
Andrew Weatherall is a name I treat with real reverence. An Englishman from Windsor, he came up through late-80s acid house and became the remixer who quietly redrew the map of British music. Just look at that client list: Primal Scream, New Order, Björk, My Bloody Valentine, the Orb. His Screamadelica work alone would secure his legacy. What I admire most is that he never chased the spotlight; he was a craftsman who let the records do the talking. Losing him in 2020 felt like losing a hidden architect of an entire era. Underground icons rarely come more influential.
