Where did you see this "connection thing" being talked about? Anyone know Atom Heart's real name? Ongaku's "Mihon #1" is by Ata, Heiko (MSO) and Atom Heart. This can also be found on the "Techno Injection" compilation. What does "MSO" mean anyway? I saw another song on some other compilation which was by Atom Heart and two OTHER Japanese names (not Ata or Heiko), so either he's got a lot of Japanese friends, or he's making some sort of professional connections in the Far East with composers/artists/musicians. I'll remember the names next time I see the compilation. As for the words, 'mihon' means 'sample' or 'specimen,' but I think 'sample' is apropo for the context (electronic music). Their giving you a 'TASTE' of electronic bliss! :) I don't know what 'ongaku' means. Anyone notice that "Mihon" sounds similar to BDP's (Black Dog Productions') stuff? And it's odd that BDP has a song called "Otaku" which means 'home' in Japanese. Coincidence? --- Anyone know anything about Dennis P. Sarratou? He has arranged, produced, written, and/or co-produced a LOT of tracks on the "Trancesylvania" compilation. My favorite is Illuminatus' "Hope". He's a part of (in some way) Neurotrancer, 2 DEF DJs vs. Mr Freeze, In Vain, and Memorizer. Anyone have a history and/or discography on this guy? Also, Pete Namlook is on the compilation under names Escape (track "Escape to Mars," and I've seen/heard somewhere else "Escape to Neptune" which I'm sure is also by Escape, and it's an awesome track with a sample from Aliens saying, "Everybody online?"), and 4 Voice with "Music Hypnotizes" which is a PUMPING trance track!!! Is there a discography of Namlook on the net, yet? Thanks, -djkc
