i dig it too
waiting for my vinyl copy - found out though that the wax edition lacks two
tracks from the CD, but these are released on a 7"...
from the hydrogen duke site:
The first in a series of sublime 7?s from south London?s tireless guardians
of the electronic marque, Hydrogen Dukebox, Here To Go (Days Are Gone) airs
a beautifully rendered and all-too-concise brain massage from champion of
machine-made, man-handled techno, Metamatics.
Lifted from the album From Death To Passwords When You Are A Paper
Aeroplane, the sprawling expanse of the exquisite original version has been
lovingly honed into a radio edit for consumption by those with a little less
time set aside for intense pleasures of the ear.
Focusing in on the gently insistent hook and cyclical swell of the original,
the radio edit turns the travelcard album track into a taxi ride that
lingers long after you?ve paid the fare.
Precision crafted by exiled Mancunian Lee Norris, Here To Go soaks up the
vibes of his rural Devonshire environs and oozes them into a breathy,
soul-soaked minimalist symphony, underpinned by Metamatics trademark blunted
analogue spikes and stutters, and propelled heavenward by a beautiful vocal
from Marie Louise Munch.
For those in search of an antidote to the rigours of urban living,
Metamatics has long been the prescription of choice, and now, thanks to the
marvels of miniaturisation, the remedy is available in a format that anyone
can swallow?

that's the beauty of it"
