Agreed. But why did Ae leave "rpeg" and a couple of other really great tracks off of the ep7 vinyl? On the cover of Tri Repeatae, it reads "Incomplete without surface noise," but the Ae ep's always end up "incomplete" on vinyl. What's up with that? At least the track selection was decent for Envane and Cichlisuite on vinyl, but Ae left some of their best tracks off of the ep7 vinyl. The cd of ep7 is fantastic, and I thank Ae for about an hour's worth of great music, but they should stop dissing the DJ's by pressing an extra slab for their ep releases. p.s. My main reason for ranting is because I was looking forward to starting off a set with "rpeg." :-) shepherd@sirius.com| A L L I E S craze develop j-smoke infamous spictakular
