Nor did any of my top 10 make the IDM-l's most popular selections. From this I take some minor satisfaction. Below are my tops (pretty arbitrary, really; another 30-40 releases could've made it on any other given day). 01 Datach'i- 10110101 (rec+play) (Caipirinha) 02 Depth Charge- Lust (DC) 03 Hidenobu Ito- Bedroom In The Cage (NS-COM) 04 Crank- Wanton Phenomena (Mille Plateaux) 05 Neina- Formed Verse (Mille Plateaux) 06 Eardrum- Last Light (Leaf) 07 Req- Daily Beats series (Skint) 08 Khan- Blue Pool (Super-8) 09 Riow Arai- Mind Edit (Soup Disk) 10 Frank Bretschneider- Rand (Mille Plateaux) David Segal Managing Editor/Alternative Press Reviews/BPM/Reissue Redux Secret Ions on WCSB Thursdays 9-11PM EST www.wcsb.org np: Diggin' In The Crates- s/t (Tommy Boy) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
