i'm that someone. and i stand by my statement.
but i'm basing it on the early Source Direct 12"s. don't know what they sound
like now. haven't even heard their _Wipeout XL_ track. those early 12"s are
daaaaaaaaaark. much darker than Photek's Studio Pressure cuts. i'd align SD with
Rufige Kru, Ed Rush, and the whole No U-Turn/Emotif hardstep posse. Photek has a
lighter tone, even at his most intense. the bass on those SD records can snap
your knees like twigs!

np: strapping fieldhands.
definitely not a name you see on IDM every day...
PS:
props to MP for the Moscheles LP. it's a great listen. lightweight, and somewhat
non-essential; but nobody has done that vibes-and-breaks thing better... yet.
