Ekswyzia - Logans EP (Phthalo) Finally got around to checking this out. I have to say I think this is both brilliant and cheesy at the same time. Sort of 70's Jan Hammer meets Sun Ra meets a free jazz drum machine. The drum machine stuff gives it this mid-80's, lower east side, Elliot Sharp kinda feel though which always makes you lose some points in my book. If samples of real drums were used instead it would have sounded even better. So this is Dimitri Fergadis / Phthalocyanine ? Radiohead - Kid A Jay-Z - Vol. 3 The Life And Times Of S. Carter I get annoyed when people start talking about how this and that mainstream thing sounds like IDM, but I have to say the backing track on "S.Carter" sounds like "I Care Because You Do" era Aphex. Björk - Selmasongs Ambarchi / Fennesz / Pimmon / Rehberg / Rowe - Afternoon Tea (Ritornell) This is OK, not great though. John Cage / Joëlle Léandre - The Wonderful Widow Of Eighteen Springs (Wergo) I actually don't like this one that much. Terry Riley - In C (CBS) Tons of other stuff sitting around waiting to be listened to. Andrei np: Radiohead - Kid A (3rd time today ?) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
