Hate to be prickly, but... Beth GIBBONS she also appears (more or less) on O'rang's _Herd of Instinct_, btw. as for finest IDM vocalist ... PINKIE MACLURE!!!! I've only managed to find the "Hedonistic" EP - a fantastic slice of what Pinkie calls 'Cabaret Electronica'. Remixes by Transglobal Communications, but the atmosphere is closer to Nearly God, Pram, and Laika than it is to TGC's usual ethnogrind. On Placebo, same label as Rollerskate Skinny. Not exactly a powerhouse of IDM activity. Has anyone ever found Maclure's _Favourite_ mini-LP/CD? I've had no luck even proving that it exists, aside from a mention in an old issue of THE LIZARD. Anyone willing to trade/sell or at least copy this? GuerillaGman2@sprynet.com
