Trainspotters, get your guns ready..... I get to play my favorite game: Delerium spotting! The last time I played with reasonable success was on "Semantic Spaces," released back in 1994. It was a fab album, chock full of syrupy, melancholy beat-driven electronics. The best part of the album though, was spotting all the "borrowed" sound, including The Orb, Enigma, and Pete Namlook. Now it's time for "Karma." Release date: April 22nd, 1997. Guest vocals include Sarah McLaughlin, Kristy Thirsk (whose heavenly seductive voice won me over on Delerium's big single, Flowers Become Screens) Jacqui Hunt, Camille Henderson, and.... hehehe, Lisa Gerrard! (okay, it's just samples, but at least they were officially approved by her label, 4AD). I'll have a full review once I've whipped through the disc a few times. If you want a hint though, picture Semantic Spaces, talvintablasized.... :) onnow: karma (nettwerk) Lame Thread Prevention in Effect: Aaron Michelson --------------------------------------------------------------------- aw-teck'r (autechre) "Everything you Know is Wrong" For reviews, interviews, art & trash http://www.on-it.net/~aaron/ aaron@defiant.on-it.net

Thank God something musically good comes out of Vancouver. I'm meaning Kristy Thirsk's voice, of course! I thought Semantic Spaces was generic and bland, and felt "smushed together." I hope this one's better. Totally unrelated, but is there an online guide to electronic shows in the London area? Jeff.

They had dissolved soon after the last album was released (Fall 1996), as reports in the local weekly say. Kristy has done at least one solo show since then, so all is not lost.
