The new Source on R&S is simply briliant hard trance. Every track (8 total) is mind-bending thump verging on acid. Cool art and case, too. The case is transluscent day-glo orange and the title and tracks are actually printed in white right on the case! Super fresh...

I too bought the new Source Experience LP. Unusually this features _more_ tracks on the vinyl edition - 9 in all totalling around 85 minutes. On the sleeve Robert states that many of the tracks were created "live" in the studio as opposed to arranged on computer, though he doesn't go on to say which ones, so we have to try and work it out ourselves. There is some really good stuff on here, really quite dark and moody in places, very trancey. Unfortunately it all sticks to the 4/4 beat so for those of us who are becoming accustomed to more complex rhythms it becomes a little monotonous in that respect. The pressing is a little quiet, even considering there is over 20 minutes on each side, but the vinyl is good quality, so cranking it up a bit was not a problem. Listened to Plastikman "Musik" for the first time last night too. Part of me doesn't quite understand this Plastikman stuff, yet it is utterly compelling. No-one else has tried copying these sounds yet. The tinny yet rich timbre of the music is quite unique. BTW I got a UK vinyl pressing with a "free" 12" - single sided with Plastikman logo etched on the back. Full track listing is A Plastique B Fuk Kriket C Konception Goo D Marbles Lasttrak (E) Kiropraktor Oldskool How does this compare with CD/US releases? nb TeeP wrote:

I didn't notice this happen, but there are some very strange noises going on in there...! Also Freek and Ethnik off the Plastique 12" make an excellent encore to this LP. Plastique is in a slightly different mix too.
