It's one the best new releases I've heard all year... It will definately be in the top 5 come December, unless there's a huge glut of Accelera Deck releases in November or something. This week I've been listening to the Avrocar CD and "Action Battlefield" by the New Age Steppers almost exclusively. It sounds more like American Anlog Set on (more powerful) drugs than it sounds like Spacemen 3, if you ask me, but the reference is still accurate. I dunno, it's one of those records that I like so much I can't even begin to describe it :) I'd be *really* surprised if it was a big hit with IDMers, but I think it's an excellent record, and I'm going to check out more earworm stuff because of it. I'm a fan of the whole dronerock thing though, your milage may vary significantly. If you think it sucks, I'll still be your friend (as long as you agree that King Tubby invented dub.) By the way, I think "Action Battlefield" is among the next group of On-U Sound "Master Series" reissues, and you'd all be wise to pick it up. any serious escavation of the roots of IDM will uncover "Action Battlefield." Don't take my word for it, even Jack Dangers says so. :) .Bil. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
