very minimalist and very good. great album. what you've come to expect from the
fine Touch label. speaker-panning sonar acrobatics, but less abrasive and unruly
than the Mego clan. smooth and uncompromised, especially the standout
"headphonics 1/0" - ? tamed into alluringly fluid Model500 shapes.
yes, minimalism is the name of the game - giving Gas a run for the money with
titles like: +, +., +.., _, _., _.., +/-
damn but that looks cool.
an excellent CD. Ikeda apparently has a bunch of earlier releases, all available
only in Japan. any of our Eastern IDMers have any more info?
just got pts 1 and 2 of the TLM saga. woohoo!
expect a review sometime soon.
