I agree about those 2 Reflection releases on Clear, they are both just brilliant. btw, Lollop is runned by Nobukatzu Takemura, and I think that Reflection : Erorrnormous World is their 1st CD release and the 2nd one is Nobukatzu Takemura's album 'Child's View'. and I think that there is also one comp. CD. I didn't hear 'Child's View' but I have 'Child's View Remixes' which really has some great moments, specially Luke Viber's Aphex's and Reflection's remix. nice to be back bye rob

Have the Reflection guys released anything since their albums on Clear? Michael ____________________________________________ "His eyes are TV cameras" http://www.vuw.ac.nz/~michael/jj.html

Over the weekend I dug out a bunch of old Reflection records -- the Errornormous World, one of the 12"s (I didn't know there were two, in fact, but so says Amazing Discographies) and the Reflected Beats 12". Those records are just as amazing now as when I first heard them... I can't believe I went so long without remembering to throw them on the decks. Anyway, does anyone know what they're up to? Still recording? Other projects? Morris, I know you recently posted here, so perhaps you're reading the list as well... I remember you were one of their big champions. So where'd they disappear to? pining for more reflected beats, phil

Hmmm...well, I don't have either of the original 12"s, but I do have the remix 12" with Morgan Geist and As One mixes, and I'm into both of 'em. The Morgan Geist mix is a beautifully restrained house track with lovely jazzy touches - there will be a little pause, then a brushed snare bit, then back into the track (for example). The As One mix is in 6/4 and works breakbeats into a nice techno jazz tune. The label art is great, too - beautiful colors in a grid. As an aside: what's that style of art/design called? I want to say cubist but I'm not sure if that's right. If you know what I'm talking about feel free to correct me.
