yes it seems i've missed tietchens' recent work so that's why i can't see it.

see further below. it seems maurizio ("m" for short) is a kind of side or
sister label of basic channel.

as has been pointed out earlier, quite accurately imo, the cd comp is a
kind of "taster" for the vinyl. that explains the deliberate distortion and
the "buy vinyl" comment on the cd comp. the vinyl works perfectly for home
listening, for me at least (the spaciousness colours most bc stuff ambient,
despite the prominence of rhythm). i hope their stuff can be recognized as
being much better than standard german trance (which i think is *awful*)!

sure, it does, but it looks like the person who did the track list on
will-e's discog interpreted the track list on the comp as being mirrored
vertically, line by line, instead of horizontally, all together, hence the
reversal. bring the comp to a mirror and read the list as it appears, and
that's the track list.

i'm sorry but i'm having a number of problems with this at the moment...
the whole computer there is down now, and it seems i can't get through to
the guy who runs it... ok it's not a very reliable server, but it's for
free, so... in short, keep trying, i'll be back :-)

the strange letters on the red labeled record look like "c 4" and *that's*
the m04 release james was talking about.
*my* favourites (in case you consider buying any) are bc #9 (phylypstrak
ii) and #7 (octagon/octaedre), and also #8 (radiance) and #4 (q 1.1). the
(jeff) mills mix on #1 (enforcement) is also a gem. all of the bc's are
interesting however.
