So far all I can say about FAX (from the few releases I've listened to)
is that it's a little tricky to know what you're getting into. With
comps, other labels, or even individual artists with a consistent
schedule, you can look the thing over with some sense of what sort of
sound is going to be on it. FAX is about as oblique about the artist &
style as they can get, which is annoying if you're looking for something
within that stack of 115 ;)
so far I like the quality. Is there anyone who knows of a decent list
that breaks down FAX artists by style, or perhaps a key to the enigmatic
cover art which could be used to identify one FAX disc from an other
within a huge drawer (such as the one they have at my local idm-aware shop)?
sorry, but my listening to all the discs is beyond the tolerance of the
record-shop guy, and he isn't very familliar with more than 5 of them.
