yeah ive heard this and its really nice. grand royal wasnt the first to do a compilation in this style though. the first (that i know of) is called "groovebox experience" which came out on distance in 97. same concept as "at home..." but with the mc-303. its got technossomy and scan x contributions among others... btw: i got a 3xcd compilation called "ohm: the early gurus of electronic music" tonight. i havent listened to it yet as i just got home but it looks like its going to be great. like i said its got 3 cds with 43 artists from 1948 to 1980 plus a 90+ page booklet with interviews/bios and some nice sturdy packaging. also: about a month ago i bought a cd/book by carsten nicolai called "polyfoto". really nice art and essays along with a 20 minute disc similar in looks to the '20 to 2000 series. i had no idea carsten nicolai was also into visual art. im very impressed with everything ive heard and seen by him. what else should i look for? matt on now: steve roden- crop circles. -------- www.spaceistheplace.org/ambientmafia On Mon, 24 Apr 2000 23:19:05 -0400 Bill Wright <wwright@clemson.edu> writes:
