I'd like to second Michael's recommendation of the Slicker album on the Hefty label. Really nice mix of melody & percussive chaos yielding a sound akin to Bisk, µ-ziq, FX Randomiz, Freeform and maybe Roupe. Listen for yourselves at: http://www.heftyrecords.com/ On a related note, Slicker will be doing a live performance here in cleveland on July 12th along with Lesser, Matmos, and Rude 66. This is one of the many upcoming live shows organized by Bent Crayon & Inaudible. Also in this series will be shows by Funkstorung & Epictir, Taylor Deupree & Noto, and others to be announced soon. -->-Lance--- mclance@nacs.net lance@inaudible.com p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
