Hi, I seem to remember someone mentioning Capitol K a week ago or so, but I wasn't paying attention, so.... can anyone tell me anyone about these guys (the insert tells me they are Kristian Robinson and Cliff Harris)? They have a 12" out on Belgian label Elf Cut called 'Song for Belgium' which is great, weird & makes me very happy. Their use of sounds, tapes and samples remind me a bit of ealy/mid Severed Heads (or maybe not). Anyway, do they have more records out? What else came out on Elf Cut? Help! On a totally different (and non-IDM) note: For the past 10 years I have been hunting down the early cassettes by Clock DVA.... in vain. Apart from the readily available 'White Souls In Black Suits', and the promise of a dub of 'Fragment' (hopefully arriving soon), I have been unable to track down any of the others ('Lomsticks Of Time', '2nd', 'Deep Floor' and 'Sex Works Beyond Entanglement' - if it exists). Anyone in possession of any of these tapes, pleeeeaase contact me. I'd trade my left arm and a whole load of Rephlex releases for any of these - be it original, CD-R or good quality tape-dub.

I can't tell you that much, Kristian is a friend of a friend and I've met him once, he came and did an excellent gig at our night (synergik) a few months back, involving lots of actual *live* playing of guitars and effects etc :) over the top of some dats/4track stuff...He said his album would come out in the summer sometime, so i guess it has... -- Ben Coffer http://www.hybridgame.demon.co.uk/
