How do Luke Slater's: • MORGANISTIC - FLUIDS AMNIOTIC CD • X-TRON, VOL 2 CD Compare to his more recent material? I love "4 Cornered Room" & "Wise Yellow Rug." Are these comparable? -->-Lance--- p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states

An important fact is that Luke has two sides to him, with it leaning more towards the Jekyll side as of late (not that we mind...), with his more lush listening creations on one end, and his forays into the more abrasive beats on the other. I've only got the X-tront Vol. 2 12", a metallic-y acid thing. It's not that bad, but nothing overly special to run home to. The Morganistic album on Input Neuron, on the otherhand, goes towards a Jeff Mills-y/Basic Channelly type o' sound, though with some exquisite drum patterns and fills that gives it a different feel than the mentioned. 'Marbles' gets a double thumbs up, as well as for the wicked burbling in 'Soup' while the last track 'Wonder' (unless the disc has bonus..) would be the only track comparable to his more listening oriented GPR label excursions. Definitely still stands up to recent output along its line, and I still would be playing tracks off of it just a bit more often if it weren't for the quiet pressing. Any knowledge of up-and-coming 7th Plain releases out there, any one?, as I was big on Yellow-wise Rug myself & need my Slater fix. Oh yeah....that remix of Alter Ego's Lycra still kicks my ass royally!! John Quest (morph.com.223) HOUSE OF COLDCUTS (For the neurochemically-inclined & naturally elevated)
