Hello all,
This is Fitz of Intellectos Mag and Records:

Well, new music is worth it! It is nice to know what is out there
beyond your room and friends. Right? Especially if you buy one item
and then recieve for FREE an electronic compilation full of abstract
beats, IDM, and more.
Try:
Nophi - Compilation Two - Nophi Records
Combining clicky intricate beats, abtsract beats for the adventurous,
and abstract sounds this compilation showcases leftfield electronica
which is neither indulgent experimental crap or simplistic preset
electronica. Overall, this compilation is a very engaging mix of
sounds. Nophi will be the new Rephlex or Warp if they keep this up!
Not many electronic compilations can make you as excited as this!
$10 (USA/CANADA) $10 (EUROPE/UK) $10 (REST OF WORLD)
Delusions of Reference - Electronic Violation
INFO: Everything from atmospheric bleepy washes, clicks and cuts, odd
sample driven songs, and even forays into dancier electro-rock
grooves within 4-5 songs. The variety flows quite well together
despite the contrasting styles because the songs are ear friendly and
hooky. Some fave tracks are "Close the Door" (a rhythmic dancey
workout with breaks and heavy basslines) and "Detection" (a brittle
melodic groove). This is a cd for fans of Broken Spindles, early New
Order, Lazyfish, and Boards of Canada.
$8.50 (USA/CANADA) $10 (EUROPE/UK) $11 (REST OF WORLD)
Toyen - EP Phone Home - Racng Junior
Toyen is a Norwegian duo. The strong point on this EP is the 2-Step
Garage stomper "Dodgy Minister" a colorful bass driven workout
featuring sexy vocals. As well the Toyen boys experiment with hard
dub, Middle Eastern/Asian musical flavors, and dancey off-kilter
beats. There are two superb remixes by C.O.U. and Moon Orchestra too.
Oslo is the "new" New York!$6 (USA/CANADA) $8 (EUROPE/UK) $9 (REST OF
WORLD)
Nophi - Compilation One - Nophi Records NEW!!!
Florida based label that excels at releasing high quality IDM in the
vein of Warp/Rephlex. A great DIY electronic compilation. Check out
Nophi Records. A must have for any true fan of electronic music and
its future. $10 (USA/CANADA) $10 (EUROPE/UK) $10 (REST OF WORLD)
Robots and Electronic Brains Mag Issue 11 with a free CD!! - This is
one of the best British zines around now and it includes a fabulous
free 5-label CD. Interviews with Bouvier and The Visit, Swim, Mrs
Cakehead and Winterbrief's tour diary. $4.25 (USA/CANADA) $5
(EUROPE/UK) $5.50 (REST OF WORLD)
Contra - Social Darwinism - Wild yet crafty electro-smash from DTrash
that takes in and sucks out influences like Aphex Twin, John Cage,
and more! John Pooley says, "Elements of glitchy sounds, classical
and breakcore come together here to create what is possibly Contra's
most accomplished work. Definately one to listen to in a dark room
late at night." Nuff said. Only $9 (USA/Canada/Europe) and $10 (Rest
of World)!!!
