you're not the only one.. i wish word of this had gotten out sooner. i'd also be interested in seeing if they were giving out those ltd. signal CDRs that they mentioned on mdos, but were sold out the day they got them in... has anyone got reviews/opinons on the recent raster releases? the Marc Behrens, the BLUEcube(), COH, William Batinski, etc...? oh, they updated http://www.rastermusic.com, where they mention the new monthly noton series "20' to 2000" with 20 minute CD singles from most of the raster crew, mika vanio, elph (coil), scanner, kandis, thomas brinkmann, and more.. np: pharoahe monch, mos def, talib kweli, rah digga, & a-butta: 'talkin' to you' (rawkus) __mlt.

well I'm not any good at reviewing things but I have the COH cd Enter Tinnitus and it's really very good. If anyone likes experimental electronic music I would strongly urge them to check this out.COH is Ivan Pavlov who is notorious on the coil mailing list for his spiky and confrontational posts. I like the packaging for the cd it comes in a really nice anti static bag.I think there is a series of these anti static cd's but I could be wrong.Anyway about the music...it is very experimental, little in the way of tunes in the conventional sense and although some of the tracks are rhythmic there are no drum or drum machines sounds of any sort.its all unique textures, interwoven in an intelligent way,and oddly beautiful. Favourite track at the moment is Space Odyssey Revisited. Oh and it's a nice length at just under 50 min.I find that I prefer shorter albums these days. the new Lewis Parker is only 36 minutes long.great.I'm getting sick of albums that last 75 min and half of that is filler. -drew
