Yep. Most of it. Ive got the 1st 2 lps - 'great sporting moments
in dub' (look at the detail on the cover if you see this!), and
'passage to indica'. Both of these are pretty slow and bass heavy.
Excellent to chill out to etc.
however, they have released a series of singles on their own
label [universal egg], which are in general more uptempo, sometimes
verging on techno. A brilliant dub/techno crossover, and essential
(IMHO) for idmers with a penchant for bass/dub. Unfortunalely, the
12"s appear to be ltd edn (they say universal egg collectors ltd edn
round the edge), so might not be able to find them all still. I think
there are 4 so far, all tops...
1. (black) Zion Train - follow like wolves rmxs - by club dog people etc..
2. (red) zion train - ruderalis /
knights of the occasion table - jean de florettes
3. (purple) zion train - something or other dub something rmx
4. (green/blue) Diatribe / zion train
The most reliable place to get them from would be Woof Distribution
in the UK (= club dog again). dunno about USA.
The lp mentioned at the top is a new one which i have only heard
one track from, but that one was a good un. Be interested to hear what
the whole lp is like...
Apparently one of the ZT chaps used to go to my college here.. dunno him tho.
