very lucid explanation, Andrew. i was gonna reply to this but i just couldn't seem to get the words straight. obIDM: Osymyso: Welcome to the Palindrome (Sprawl) - who the hell is this guy? this is some of the most fun, silly, totally wild style sampladelic music i've heard in a while. it comes off as sounding like old Severed Heads, Art of Noise, Greater than One. . .definitely not for everyone, but if you like the goofier side of electronics then you really should give it a listen. -------------- 1642 try 621 -------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

Here is the info i found... It's by a guy named Mark Nicholson. His releases, including his most recent on Spiky Records, have won him friends in high places. Mary Ann Hobbs, Annie Nightingale, Richard Fearless and Mr. Scruff have all shared his brand of techno with the listeners. Mark is chatty and happy, cool and quirky with a character that is thoughtful yet armed to the hilt with dry wit. And so is his music.
