to Jamie <jwilson1@alsvid.scu.edu.au>, from austria, i guess ;-): thanks for the info (sorry about the delay). none of the tracks you have are on the album... really fine ones on there, i would judge by now, are "wicked city", "tune for a replicant", and "a sonic fairy tale" (weird enough titles? not really), as well as the zero bpm vinyl bonus "ohm". what i especially like about the first two of these is the way the mood suddenly switches between dark and light by really minimal change, so the tracks end up having an original ambi(val)ence about them. (had to do those brackets :-)) i was quite astonished (and a bit disappointed), however, to find out that the thudding has just about the familiar temperature on *my* equipment. can i believe that exciting warmth was due to the shop's amp? ...still, a decent down-to-earth release, no attempt at experiments, but definitely no embarrasings either (that are so easy to stumble over in the trance area - i can't get over that shakuhachi in morley's kinetic remix). 40 but cosmic: the guy who first took me to a h*rdc*r* club was the chairman of a conference i attended, also 40. cya 2, chappy from deutschland, watching out for blissed
