Birmingham techno artist Anthony Child has quickly built a solid and, to a certain extent, innovational catalogue of minimal dancefloor techno since his Surgeon releases began coming into court in 1991. Compared favorably with Detroit original Jeff Mills from his earlier Downwards singles on ahead, Child's tracks have been a mainstay in the pop Motor City DJ's sets. Although Surgeon releases have worked an increasing affectedness for bitter and trance, an economy of sound and basic hardness combine his and Mills' sound. A celebrated and more and more pop DJ himself, Child grokked his skills from hip-hop and electro jocks ("Term of enlistment de France" is a mainstay of his DJ sets), filling out his style with a driving ruggedness and perceptiveness for speedy cutting and flipping. Surgeon's ledger entry into production was as well remarkable; urged on by producer Mick Harris (Child is a fan of Harris' Scorn project), the former Napalm Death drummer locked Child in his midget studio, beseeching him to "go crazy." The result, the self-titled debut EP, was released on Downwards, and was immediately hailed as some of the highest tone U.K. techno of its time. Releases for Soma, Blueprint, Ideal Trax, and the ultra-exclusive Tresor label followed, with the debut LP, Basic Tonal Vocabulary, coming into court on Tresor in 1997. Balance followed in 1998, as did Strength & Form in 1999. Equally influenced by other electro-pop innovators like Tomita and YMO, experimental groups like Can, Faust, and Suicide, and the tough gritstone of American electro and techno (Henry Martyn Robert Hood, Hashim), Surgeon's mash-up is both straightforward and subtly experimental.

"Weeds" season debut sets Showtime ratings record
LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Showtime's pot-themed comedy series "Weeds" started its fourth season off on a real high, becoming the network's most-watched telecast on record.
Meanwhile, the new series "Secret Diary of a Call Girl," which led out of "Weeds" on Monday night, gave the network its most-watched series debut since 2004, when Nielsen began reporting Showtime ratings separate from Showtime Plex.
"Weeds" averaged 1.3 million total viewers at 10 p.m. Monday, which broke the record held by a Season 2 episode of "Dexter" (1.2 million) that aired in 2007. An 11 p.m. repeat of "Weeds" averaged 406,000 viewers, according to Nielsen.
"Weeds" has seen its season premieres grow from the start. The series bow pulled in 488,000 viewers, while Season 2's debut averaged 578,000 and Season 3 started out with 824,000.
After "Weeds," "Call Girl" also did well, dialing up 949,000 total viewers at 10:30 p.m. That beat the series debut of "The L Word" (936,000) in 2004. The last new series to launch in a post-"Weeds" time slot was the comedy "Californication," which drew 550,000 viewers in its August 13 bow.
Elsewhere, A&E's "Intervention" averaged 2.1 million viewers with its Season 5 bow at 9 p.m. Monday, marking the most-watched season premiere for the unscripted series. That included 1.5 million viewers in the adults 18-49 demographic and 1.4 million among adults 25-54.
