i can only second you. also get yunx split 12" on pitchcadet! three tracks by yunx and three tracks by datathief. these two duo rules. i think it's a bit hard to find as it is quite limited but was recently repressed if i'm not wrong. yunx also did a 12" on isophlux more datas about yunx http://www.cythre.freeserve.co.uk/ pitchcadet, a label to watch out as delsin and isophlux ;) disk.system
