hi all,
[must apologise if this is a repost, but i tried
posting it on Sunday and it never showed up
back in my mailbox.]
Thought i could trail the new release on Monotonik
following the Lackluster CD. We will continue to
put out CDs, but we'll also release singles, EPs
(and maybe even albums!) for free as mp3s..
Anyhow, we have a new, freely downloadable 4-track EP
from 3818919/w called "Nachos Supreme EP"
available now - info appended below. As mentioned,
it's very much idm/ambient in the Bochum Welt/Bola/etc.
style.. hope everyone likes it. Comments to us at
mono211@mono211.com or on-list welcome.
The webpage with the EP-cover and info is at:

ps - upcoming Monotonik mp3 release from list-member Bauri,
too - we'll keep you informed.

3818919/w - "Nachos Supreme EP" [4 tracks, 15.40, 14.3 meg]
(monotonik.mp3.rel.8) - released on 15/08/99.
.metamorphosing.quirky.idm.with.soda.
The first EP release online from Monotonik, and
that quirky English idm-ster, 3818919/w, comes up
trumps with some beautiful tracks influenced by
everything from Bola through Bochum Welt to
Plone.
The lead track, "Nachos Supreme", is full
of wonderfully twisty riffs and nimble drums, and
"Ages" and "Cheshire" float into melodic ambience
of the slightly surreal, fevered kind, whilst the final tune,
"Shift-Break", uses clunks and robot voices to bring
the noise, 1982-style. Good show, old chap.
3818919/w also did the cover for this mp3 to reflect
some of his favourite nights down the pub with a plan,
a beer, and a plate of tortilla+tomato. Mm, cheesy.
