yeh ive posted a few such reccomendations over the last few days, but i SUPPOSE i can write em again, seeing as ur th only person who seems able to speak about something other than ae! ;) i am VERY dissapointed with gravity, all the atmosphere, depth and ambience from hongkong (and interstate) has been sucked out: it is flat and bland, their is none of the unique atmosphere of previous releases... well you might be able to tell that is not exactly a favourite release! Both fluxion albums are incredible (vibrant forms 1 an 2) enveloping, dubby, mind altering tones, drones and beats! these are FAR more like what we want. try, you will not be dissapointed! best on CR (apart from monolake + vainquer) in my opinion. i also put some reviews on yesterday, 1 of theorem - ion, bit more overtly techno and earthy but enjoyable hope this helps -thomas ____________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
