Anyone got the Soma compilation ? It's got a Ritchie Hawtin mix of Slam's Positive Education and other interesting looking stuff on it. I just wondered what it was like, whether it was worth buying. I got the Concept in Dance - Digital Alchemy comp. yesterday and some of that is quite quite fierce. It tends to plough a similar furrow all the way through (lots of filter sweeps disappearing off into the echoey distance and insistent kick drums powering away). So, on the face of it, it's not that subtle, but listen again and there is some other stuff going on. I reckon it's a pretty top-dollar compilation, the only draw back being that it makes you want to turn it up and up to neighbour unfriendly levels . Definitely for putting on before you go out to get you in the mood. And for when you get back to keep you there. I liked it. Tom

Sorry to ask one of these stupid "what does a 303 sound-like?" type questions, but what sound is a filter sweep? I am sure I have heard many as I have a massive collection of techno and IDM, but as I have no music-making know-how or equipment, you are talking "greek to me" Can someone give me a few well know examples pls.

open your mouth and make a humming noise. now slowly bring your lips together until they are just a small distance apart. you've just heard a resonant filter sweep. -- Name: Jon Email: jsd@cyborganic.com Web: http://cyborganic.com/~jsd
