I tried to find out about this Gescom release but I was led to believe that it does not exist. Nick at Smallfish recalls only the Dual Purpose record coming in, but no Gescom. A friend asked at Pelicanneck and they only knew of the Dual Purpose release, and pointed to Picadilly for a copy. The guy at Picadilly was certain that Autechre are behind the dual purpose release but most importantly, I got a copy, yay :-D Anyway, I could well believe it is gescom related, and it DOES have a gescom logo goddammit. The first track is the kind of hip hop style I associate with the gescommy/autechrey stuff like envane and gescom 2. Second track is some real syncopated off-kilter madness that, for a time, was pretty much the skam trademark. Other side, first track, more hard-edged metallic bassy beaty stuff, and the last track is heavily treated and not to be taken lightly. My guess is that Dual Purpose contains a part of the Gescom collective. ed --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
