::REVIEWS::
2002-08-26 :: VSNARES :: 2370894 (Planet µ)
For being assembled from tracks recorded over the span of several
albums, 2370894 shows a remarkable level of cohesion and sounds as
though it could have been recorded in a single block
2002-08-26 :: 7" Reviews for Awkward Silence 11 & 12
Reviews for LUSINE ICL/THE BUDDY SYSTEM :: Vacate/Missing You
Much & BAURI/NOVEL 23 :: Teddymx/Moony Girl on Awkward Silence
Recordings (UK).
2002-08-22 :: Humming Bird Feeder Version 0.2 (Lucky Kitchen)
Tetsu Inoue, Stephen Vitiello & Andrew Deutsch :: "...Spacious and
sometimes quite lengthy, each track is given time to unfold and develop.
The result is a minimal experimental album that is well worth exploring
further..."
2002-08-21 :: Metamatics :: Remixes (Delikatessen)
"...With only a handful of releases to their name from Lusine ICL, Crunch
and now Metamatics, Delikatessen are fast becoming a label to watch with
Remixes being no exception..."
2002-07-22 :: Proem & Dryft :: Component Records
Proem's latest No_Carrier 3" CD-EP and Dryft's The Mytotyc Exyt CD-EP
both on Component Records are the latest two releases set to place
Component on top in the field of abstract and abrasive electronic music.
2002-07-21 :: V/A :: Phil Ranelin Remixes (Hefty)
"...Overall, the variety of mixers means no one's going to love every track.
I really enjoy about half of them. So for the money, the vinyl is a better
bet than the CD. Same tracks, and close to half the price..."
2002-07-21 :: Qua :: Forgetabout (Surgery)
"...All in all Forgetabout is an excellent debut. Qua covers a lot of ground
across 13 tracks, but also holds things together as a whole. Tunes can be
focused on at a micro scale, as little contrasting sounds shift the mood
repeatedly, or the album can be taken as a whole as a rather psychedelic
journey..."
::PROFILES::
2002-08-22 :: Robots on the rise! :: An interview with Jamie Liddell of
Super_Collider
"...Super_Collider is a fairly well known collaboration between longtime
techno-
head Cristian Vogel and enthusiast for all things funky Jamie Liddell. A
few years
back Loaded (the same boys as Skint, home to Fatboy Slim et al) released their
debut, Head On, an unlikely fusion of tweaked techno from the both of them and
Jamies vocal stylings, which showed the influence of funk legends such as
George
Clinton and Sly Stone..."
