Agreed. Especially 'Water Margin' (4)...

Bollocks. 'Consciousness' is at least as experimental as all the PTK
stuff. Listen to those beats and sounds! And a 90bpm headnodder ('Into
The 90s') on a jungle EP is not exactly usual...

He *is* Aquarius. And he has also recorded as Sentinel for Basement,
plus put stuff out on Certificate 18. The Aquarius stuff is worth
checking out, although it's a bit more orthdox. Off the top of my head:
Aquarius - Drift To The Centre (Looking Good 2)
Aquarius - Dolphin Tune/Aquatic (Good Looking 9)
Aquarius & Tayla - Bringing Me Down (Good Looking 13)
All his pseudonyms were discussed on Breaks a while ago. If you like
Photek, there's loads of others you should check out - Source Direct,
Skanna (not the Rimbaud one), Certificate 18, Reinforced, J Majik/IR,
Hidden Agenda to name a few. Do not underestimate the importance and
brilliance of innovative jungle... :)
Anyone got any news of the ART/Photek release?
Changing the subject entirely: Just got Herbert - Part 3 (Phono). Only
500 in existence until the box set comes out. Definitely more floor-
friendly and accessible than 2, but sheer brilliance all the same. Still
after 'Radio', 'D is for Doctor'; and is Herbert - Part 1 worth hunting
down...
(btw: Herbert is the deep house/techno guise of Matt Herbert aka
Wishmountain and Dr Rockit, all fucking amazing stuff)
see ya
