Hmmm. Funny things happened with Transmatt stuff in the UK. First of all they're rare as fuck, I paid 25 quid for an original Nude photo, but last year some of the old stuff 'reappeared'. I bought it on sight, thinking it was the real stuff, but on closer inspection it turns out have 1992 copyright things on it, the label art is very shit (not original) and on the copy of K-Alexsi "All for lee Sah" [Awesome acid btw], the sound quality is very poor, in fact it sounds exactly like a copy off vinyl, not a master. I therefore came to the conclusion that these were bootlegs. But of course I'm probably wrong... However I got a copy of Energy Flash at the same time and this *is* original. The dodgy represses/bootlegs were RiR - Strings, the k-alexi and Suburban Knight. Oh and guess what. I'm doing a Transmat discog :) greg

er.. that's because Derrick did a massive rerelease of tons of the old transmat stuff... What you see is repressings. but don't be too ashamed to get 'em.. original or repress, they still rule the universe.. check out the psyche record.. Carl Craig at his best..
