The packaging is pretty neat-o. I guess the point in my story is, if you're going to pay ~$77USD for something, you expect Rephlex to not package the packaging in such a way that it fucks it up. About the music: one track is entitled "fenixfunk", and I'm almost sure it's a reference to the Fenix modular, which is quite rare and excellent sounding. Coil owned one, as does one of the guys in Multicast. That being said, both sides sound quite a bit like most parts were created on a modular synth. I'm thinking that the theme with the Analord series is that Richard is eschewing laptops and digital technology, and showing what can still be done with analog gear. If that's the case, then those fanboys out there who think everything must be run through an Eventide and hyper-edited to fuck are going to be solely disappointed and should pop their binders up on Ebay real quick like. Course, that's just my initial impression from having heard Analord 10. cheers w --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
