Does anyone know what the correct speed setting is for the B-side of Bola's Pao Paoe from Skam. I know the Pae Paoe side is 33 1/3 rpm because I have the CD, so assumed the other side to be the same speed. But when I played it at 33 1/3, sounded kinda off and seemed to run kinda long. Sounded much cooler at 45 rpm, but after going through this once before with the Demon EP's from Musik Aus Strom, I'd really like to be sure I'm listening to it at the right speed. Any help is appreciated, thanx. Bryan PS: And besides, what is it with all these IDM artists being so vague about printing the correct RPM's on their vinyl releases, anyway? Are they trying to 'cool'? Hip? Mysterious? Try annoying. Just print the friggin' correct RPMs, already. Geez. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure it's 33 1/3. Sounds great to me at that speed. And the robotic voice sounds "right" too.
