Subject:: [idm] Russell Mills - Strange Familiar

I remember reading on the list a few weeks ago that the new Russell Mills release, "Strange Familiar," isn't really a new album but a reissue of 1996's "Undark." That would seem to make sense, since "Pearl & Umbra" is still only a few months old -- but I can't find confirmation anywhere, or what the correct title should be if they are the same album. Little help?... ;> .John. PS: No matter when it was recorded, it's pretty brilliant -- the darkest, most textured fourth-world/invisible-soundtracks type album I've heard in a *long* time, and enhanced with some sort of patented dynamics process that really expands the sound... Definitely recommended if you like Hassell/Eno, Paul Schutze, Bill Laswell, Muslimgauze, etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
