What VOID?? I mean the first four or five releases (Plaid, Gescom, Jake Slaz, Jedi Knights) were all excellent and worth purchasing, but were produced by already established artists. What followed thereafter was for the most part OK, nevertheless, not very exciting. As One was good, but again, an already established artist. I don't really see why Clear was considered so "revolutionary" when all they did was enlist IDM illuminati and had them perform in a retro style. Not trying to slag the label or its fans... just my two cents. Mike.
