hear about 'em. more generally, i should probably say that i love most of the releases on Force Tracks, i love the more groovy, less hard side of Kompakt (and the ambient stuff) and i like the stuff i've picked up on Trapez and most of the stuff (which is less in total) that i've picked up on Traum.

Stefan Schwander: aka: Swimmingpool (w/Michael Scheibenreiter, out of Phoneheads) 'anything that doesn't move' 2002 Combination Records, "part of the Carhartt network". If you're enjoying 'Rocket in Dub', you ~love~ Swimmingpool. ~Very~ dub. Pick that one up, for sure. aka: Repeat Orchestra - Themes From Repeat (aTouchofClass) Not as dubby as Swimmingpool; more along the lines of the Antonelli Electr. stuff that Schwander does, though Repeat Orchestra is less pop-y than Electr. Of the Antonelli Electr. releases on Italic, my favourite is 'Me, the Disco Machine': great stuff! Very disco, very machine-minimal. 'Click' is also worth picking up. 'Love and Other Solutions', the most recent Electr. release, did not impress me as much as the first two Electrs. It's not bad, though, just not outstanding, as is 'Me, the Disco Machine': that one raised the bar. ;) Of all that stuff, Swimmingpool will be your best 'fit', IMO. You might check out the Oni.Tor label, distributed by Kompakt, for other stuff that will interest. In particular, the Judge/Jirku album, Plusism, and the compilation album, 'Von Uns'. On that comp, the Solovyev track, Roct, should ~work~ for you, considering your impression of Rocket in Dub: they're two mixes of that one on it, both dubbed out nicely. The Hagedorn album on Oni.Tor is worth a listen, too. My advice on Schwander: if he's involved, grab it! =seek= --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
