Definately gotta agree with Pietro on this. I was actually a bit wary of
these upcoming releases (a 2xLP/CD compilation and a single artist 12" -
the names of which escape me as the records are at home at the moment and
I'm not) from this newish American electronic indie as I wasn't that
impressed by the label's debut release, a house mix CD by DJ Harry The
Bastard.
But there are some seriously fine sounds on these records, and the only
names I recognized where S. Yokota (who has recorded for Leaf, Harthouse
and other labels, and contributed two tracks to the compilation) and
Spacetime Continuum (no intro needed, he does a great jazzy remix on the
12"). I gave them a quick listen last night, and there were bits of
crunchy & abstract IDM, electro, dubby techno and lots of other good
stuff. Really, really impressive - watch for them to drop in early March.
