i'm interested in these two bands/people/objects and was wondering if someone could recommend good first purchases. bentcrayon has the dopplereffekt "gesamtkunstwerk" release - any good? and i found a couple drexycia CD/LPs, namely the one on submerge, "the quest" (1997) and one on tresor, "neptune's lair" (1999). unfortunately i am still limited to CDs only, but would appreciate any and all recs/reviews. finally, i picked up reload - "a collection if short stories" last weekend, and it's quite good. somewhat oldschool idm (whatever that means) with a good mix of beats and beatlessness, melodies and ambience, harsh and gentle textures. that may sound like a wishy-washy assessment, but this album really does go all over the map. if you've been thinking about buying this, don't hesitate. btw, it doesn't really sound like the "on" remix at all. unfortunate maybe, but still good stuff. tkx!! nub --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
