Mine? Realy? Thanks! I don't know chronologicly (too lazy to check) what came 1st, generation or ltd. But from all his work I'd say they are the two most resembling each other in style - pretty low teckky ranging between the spacey semi industro/illbient (pick yer desc.) and the stomping distorted beats. After that came 'Low on Ice' which is also very thinly produced and is my favorite nightmares inducing record coming next only to SAWII. "HyperModern Jazz 2000.5" - well I got it only 2 months now and listened to it quite a bit but besides telling you I like it I dunno what else to say. It resembles some of Atom Heart's works on RI (MONO TM comes to mind) and is pretty weird electronica with an electro flavor. The last one ('Les Etoiles...') I didn't get yet but I will ;) Oh, there's also "The Destroyer" - harder than hell and pretty good in gibing you the notion of what hardcore is suppposed to be. Regards, Snow.
