Yeah, it's unreal -- at points the stylus swings a full half an inch back
and forth with every revolution. It was when I realized that this was
intentional and not some really bad mispressing that I "understood" the
record. If you look closely you'll note that the center hole is drilled
right in the middle of the record, but the grooves are cut in an
elliptical spiral rather than a round one, which is where that
seasick/phasing stuff comes from.

I don't have it, but there are still a few copies of it at Recordtime so
I'll pick one up.

My guess would be that Quadrant is Maurizio and Carl Craig, though this is
pure speculation (and while I'm making wild guesses, I think maybe Phylyps
is Maurizio and Jeff Mills). More wood for the rumor/bullshit bonfire. :)
btw, I realize I screwed up the cat number (I told you my trainspotting
hat was on backwards) -- Quadrant Dub is BC06, not BC05.
