right station, wrong time. the w.jukebox 7" is called "damil 85"/"cubillo" i have a white-label, so i always get the title screwed up. oh - and "damil 85" reappears on one of the recent Elefant comps. mr. e. np: bovine over sussex w: "if only they could make microscopie people..." 7" (oska) (what ever happened to this crew?)

I'm sure many of you now have these disc's.. Besides the Plaid remix of Ae's "Vletrmx", Isan's remix of Seefeel's "When Face Was Face" is unbelievable. I'm not familiar with the original track, or any of Isan's work, but this remix is probably one of the smoothest, and most mellow idm tracks i've heard in quite a while. Dark, slow, and pouncing at the same time, and a lovely melodic hook rounding the edges off. Can anyone recommend other Isan material in this vein? I've heard some of Seefeel's work, but never bothered to pick it up. I recall some simple techno tunes from way back that Seefeel did. Anyway, if you have some recommend's for me about Isan, shoot them over. Please and thanks..

Isan is excellent stuff. I have a bunch of releases from them and they are all excellent but my favorites is their Beautronics cd on the Tugboat label. Here are the Isan release i can remember offhand... . Isan: damil 85/cubillo 7" (Wurlitzer Jukebox) . Isan: titled not tithed 7" (Bad Jazz) . Isan/tin Foil Star split 10" (Atomic) . Isan: betty's lament 7" (Bad Jazz) . Isan: beautronics cd (Tugboat) . Isan: parochi 7" (Static Caravan) . Isan: digitalis LP (Liquefaction Empire) Plus a host of compilation appearance on a variety of labels including Darla, Liquefaction Empire, Hummy & Joey, Fragments, Foundry, Elefant, Warp & Earworm. Come to think of it, my second favorite Isan release is a cool Piano Magic/Isan/Horton Jupiter/Wisdon of Harry remix 12" on Liquefaction Empire. The fun thing about this 12" is that all four artists each have a track on this comp but each track is remixed by one of the other artists. it's like a remix orgy! on this one isan's damil 85 is remixed by piano magic and then isan remixes horton jupiter's ylo! track.

Interesting you mention this : I've never heard of him/them before this w/end : borrowed the Matador 10th anniversary triple disc (of which VERY little grabbed my fancy) but one track that's really nice is by Wisdom of Harry. Who are they? I *

You should check out some of Seefeel's stuff again. Each album has a slightly different style to it. My favourite is probably "Quique" (Too Pure), which is probably the best showcase of the entire group's talents (thereafter, Clifford seemed to take centre stage more). Everything sounds nice and organic, with a slightly unpolished feel to it that works well. "Succour" (Warp) is also another favourite, although this time the style is more stripped down, at times sounding like an IDM-ish hybrid of Cocteaus and Dead Can Dance with a sprinkling of Autechre for good measure. "Ch-Vox" (Rephlex) is quite refreshing -- Seefeel at their most ambient and minimalist, almost to a SAW2 extent. I didn't take to it at first, but over the years it's kind of grown on me. -- Mark Stevens http://www.headspin.clara.net/
