It was indeed written by Richie Hawtin back in '91 on his first Circuit Breaker ep called Overkill on Probe records. Probe records was the label of Richie Hawtin & John Aquaviva intended as the outlet for harder techno & acid tracks and was a sister label to +8. Probe was the starting place for many legandary techno producers including: . Mark Gage (Cusp/Vapourspace) . Jochem Paap (Public Energy/Speedy J) . Dan Bell (DBX/Spawn/Cybersonik) . Fred Gianelli (Fred/Kooky Scientist/The Acid Didj/Psychic TV) . Himadri (Teste/Turph/Switch/NY6/Spawn) . Steve Stoll (Datacloud/The Operator/Dark Man/The Blunted Boy Wonder/Mr Proper/Octaves & Tremolos/Storm/ Voyager 8) . Chris Sattinger (Mono/Timeblind/Keek/Voodoo Party) . John Aquaviva (Cybersonik/ . Richie Hawtin (Circuit Breaker/Fuse/Cybersonik/Teste/ States of Mind/Final Exposure/Up!/Plastikman/Hardtrax/ Concept) Regarding availability of the probe releases, i believe many of their 30 release are still in print.
