Wow, haven't heard FDW's name in a while. I used to have some stuff by him on vinyl ages ago but sold it when I moved. From what I remember, most of it was hard, (dare I say intelligent?) semi-ravey thumpy techno--sort of Joey Beltram meets early European techno. I really liked it at the time. I believe most of it was on R&S. Sorry I couldn't help more! Would be very interested in learning what he's been up to from others, though. Ashok
