well after seeing this thread I am really looking forward to these threads
(after all they usually occur around the same time):
what is idm?
house sucks
vinyl vs cd.
bootlegging for fun and profit (ok I admit, I am fond of that one)
a satirical post that proves some people have to much time on their hands
is that fascination with monkeys healthy?
idm content (sorta):
picked up the following:
john McEntire (sp?)/ sea and the cake seven inch. The McEntire track is
exclusive to the 7 inch and the sea and the cake is from the soundtrack
McEntire did (Reach the Rock).
The McEntire track is a little dark, full of shimmering bass and
interesting beats. Reminds me of a more mature fridge actually.
The sea and the cake track is what the cure should sound like in 1999.
also got the matmos/piano magic split 7 inch. The matmos track is
completely nuts. More in line with quasi objects than the west. Damn
good if you like that kinda thing (and I do). Also, when did lesser join
matmos? he is listed as being a member.
also got to hear a promo of the forthcoming pan sonic cd. Very good.
Minimal and sparse. Not as in your face as the previous release. More
like a mike vanio release but less minimal.
