Or indeed, 1 word : cLOUDEAD The anti rap rant was one of the weakest things I've seen. I bet all your IDM idols love rap. Slicker "The Latest" is quite nice. As is Kid 606's "PS You love me" --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

if you liked PS I love you then you will definitely like the remix release. it's not entirely remixes, which helps too, although the mixes are quite handsome. i highly recommend it. you might also look into the "gq on the eq++" release on tigerbeat6 as that too i genuinely liked, whereas the older 606 stuff didn't quite grab me the same. +------------------------------------+ m.mercer :: systm audio-visual communicator http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/98/systm.html mmercer@kent.edu :: vletrmx@hotmail.com _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Here i my review of it from a few weeks ago... . Kid606: ps you love me cd (Mille Plateaux) Twelve tracks here including eight fabulous remixes of 'PS I Love You' tracks by Matmos, Atom? (atom heart), Farben, Pan American, Rechenzentrum, Electric Company, Twerk, and Kid606 himself. The album starts out with a new track called 'act yr age' which features a nice minimal click-techno track driving more by dueling synth lines than by the muted percussion. The matmos remix pumps up the bpms with a quirky 4x4 house remix that matmos has gotten so good at recently. The Atom? mix adapts a deep techno sound but with more of a cut-up style. The Farben mix is typical farbenesque dubby atmospheric click-techno that I, personally, can never get enough of. Pan American delivers a very impressive remix featuring deep muted 4x4 percussion of sparse minimal eno-esque piano with a few pops, glitches, and sfx thrown in for good measure (Has Pan American done anything else in the percussive techno style?). Kitty Yo's Rechenzentrum delivers a more straightforward cytrax-raum-force tracks-styled mix. Electric Company's contribution is an eclectic mix that alternates tempos and styles - from intermittent downtempo squelchy guitar loops to short bursts of skittery minimalish techno but always with a slightly abrasive edge. Next Twerk brings us back to the clicktechno sound but adds some nice synth washes, gurgling electronics and punchier percussions to make this mix one of the more floor-friendly ones on the album. The last four tracks are two new tracks that are in the ambient style of the PS I Love You album, as well as two percussive Kid606 remixes of PS I Love You tracks. I really enjoyed the original 'PS I Love You' and this remix album is a nice compliment to the original release. 'P.S. You Love Me' is recommended for those into warm atmospheric click-techno with an experimental and sometimes playful edge. After weeks of repeat listens my opinion still stands that it's a 'nice' release but probably not an essential one. If I had to choose between recent remix releases i would probably pick Auch's Remix Tomorrow Goodbye over PS You Love Me. -->-Lance---- PO Box 450715 Westlake, OH 44145 United States --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
