YES! It's a great record indeed, with such a unique mixture of sounds - bits of IDM, garage/two-step and glitch-tech with vocals in the style of David Sylvian/John Foxx and other soulful synthpop artists. And I'm proud to say that they're Toronto boys (well, from Hamilton originally, but based in Toronto now). I had them down on my radio show a few weeks ago, and we had a great chat about their influences and thoughts on various forms of music, electronic or otherwise. I don't think the record has a lot of distribution yet, but there should be some info at the Kin Records website - www.electrokin.com Greg :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Greg Clow ::: greg@stainedproductions.com ::::::::: concert & event promotions ::: http://www.stainedproductions.com :::::: electronic music radio & reviews ::: http://www.feedbackmonitor.com ::: electronic/experimental record label ::: http://www.pieheadrecords.com ::::::::: 158 Close Ave. 2nd Floor ::: Toronto, Ontario M6K 2V5 ::: Canada --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
