because of the dub influence, I almost fell asleep behind the wheel once
listening to the BC CD comp, the music is very atmospheric.

basically the same sound.
I was at a friends loft and there was lots of reverb in his place, I said
hey play some Basic Channel you should buy some Chain Reaction and he was
like why? he pointed to the Basic Channel compilation and said that's all
you really need, he said he could play the same two tracks off that
compilation all night at a party and nobody would know the difference.
He also has an old Ambient CD compilation with a pre- Basic Channel Maurizio
track.

yeah I know the difference, I think part of the reason Pole sounded so great

bass sounded like a giant fart when the levels would peak.
He is really good at mastering his tracks.

Heroin seems to be the hip fashionable drug of the 90's, sensationalized by
the movie Pulp Fiction.
I don't do drugs, I wouldn't recommend a drug like heroin unless your a
celebrity fashion model.

that's good.
I always thought BC would sound grate in a large empty warehouse so you
could hear the reverb and echo reflecting, bouncing off the walls.
