-Doug Theriault "Unidentified"
-v/a "Toast & Jam Nine"
written up in XLR8R May 03.
Toast and Jam/US/Cd
Portland electro goes cruising for a bruising. Ten artists stumble
around a house of sharp metallic corners and unforgiving doorframes
in the dark, accumulating the sonic equivalent of scrapes and cuts.
By far the most intriguing tracks are the ones that are the most
energetically masochistic: Solenoid's "Genclone 4" lurches out of
every groove as soon as it settles into it, smacking itself brutally
around. "She's A Doctor, Too" and Monkey Feet," both by ML, are the
most compelling, full of swaggering postures and sly hooks. Selena

-A Nat Hema "H.E.M.A.N.I.K.E."
-v/a "We Bore"
-ML "Pajama Party"
-Accelera Deck "Echo Economy"
