All well and good, however, I find those releases on Rephlex to be alot more stimulating then those releases that come out on Moonshine. Record Labels happen to be a helpful indicator that point me in the direction of music I find interesting. ObIdm: Recently dusted off Elektroids _Electroworld_ and listening to that a whole bunch again. Really like the solid mix of Techno and non-cheesy Electro (oxymoron?). Maybe the vocal samples are a bit cheesy but the electro riffs are solid. on.now: Urban Electronic Disorder
