benge-the very best of benge (sub rosa) neina-<not sure of the title> (mille plateaux) can someone provide some short descriptions/comparisons for these releases? been thinking about ordering them, but can't find any sound snippets on the net (sub rosa's site is out of date and a pain in the ass, mille plateaux site still isn't done). Lance, help!!

Hello Bruce, Two excellent releases... . Benge: the very best of benge cd (sub rosa) As the title suggests this is a "greatest hits" type releases featuring 11 tracks taken from his six cd-releases on his own Expanding label. The sound of Benge one of spacious downtempo electronica with beautiful drawn out melodies and subtle persuccions. On a some tracks touches of loungy jazz, electro, and dub are also added to the mix. At times Benge reminds me of Emanate label artist if.then.else and other times of Freeform's quieter tracks but at all times Benge is produces enjoyable music that fans of smooth melodic electronica should enjoy. . Neina: formed verse cd (mille plateaux) I highly recommend it if you're into beatless warm melodic soundscapes mixed with a sprinkling of light pops & glitches, distant vocals snippets, and an odd environmental sample or two. Comparison to Oval's Diskont 94, Robert Babciz's excellent MoMent album, Microstoria's Reprovisers (for the variety in sounds), & SND albums all apply well to Neina. -->-Lance--- lance@inaudible.com p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
