quoted 2 lines if this material will be similar?

Actually Smyglyssna has also released a 4-track 12" on Plug Research called Dold which was a great abstract dub-techno outing. Smyglyssna also released a full cd on the Meme label under his real name Henrik Johannsen and i believe that was more in the experimental glitch style though i never was able to hear it myself. Most recently Smyglyssna has a great track on the forthcoming Komplott label compilation called Starfield Simulation which is a mix of ambient and dubtech. And dont forget the Smyglyssna track on the Plug Research comp Voices in My Lunchbox... Based upon Smyglyssna's previous efforst and the strength of every other Vertical From release, I am very excited to hear what the new Smyglyssna release will sound like. -->-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
