Richard Kirk has some nice stuff, but I always have thought of him as being on the fringe of electronics, although Cabaret Voltaire was popular. Is there a big following of him, and/or Mallinder's work? To me, his cold machined approach to music is very nice, as he throws in a few warm chords here and there. Could someone tell me more about him? WHats his best stuff? How long has he been doing music? Cheers, A. Mukerjee A.

If you want my take on my fav CV stuff, it's the trilogy: Plasticity (Plastex, 1992) International Language (Plastex, 1993) The Conversation (Instinct/Apollo, 1994) Wicked stuff unlike anything else out there. word to the mothership, brock. np: nada mas
