I have to agree, I was pretty unimpressed with Lexoleum one...

Iron City is really good, his best work to date IMO. All sorts of funky with just the right amount of glitchy/DSP touches.

Yes...the new Dabyre is freaking tight, really good. His previous release One/Three is great as well, pretty different from the new one, it seems to have a little less going on than instrmntl but not in a bad way. Definitely worth checking out. -- ^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^- omz beautamous loaf recordings http://www.hotweird.com/loaf/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
