or even beautronics!! which is what it's really called... apparently it is long since sold out, but is being repressed. i have been raving about isan for ages, but not here as i have only just joined. :) last years single 'bettys lament' on bad jazz is definitely theirbest record to date.. it is so good. mmmmm. the split 10" mentioned above was with tin foil star, i think it was 3 or 4 track isan did tho.... it is on atomic records i believe, of belgium. hope this helps!! tom xx -- thomasbetts /// thomas@hairnet.demon.co.uk oh.yes.new.website.is.HERE /// www.bad-transmissions.co.uk
