Hi, Just a note that say that for those in the States and Canada who haven't purchased Thug's "Isolated Rhythm Chock" because of its relative unavailability in that region you now have no excuse as Skimo Music <skimomusic@home.com> will be doing orders again for the last time this coming week. So do yourself an aural favour and purchase this wonderful disc. Don't just take my word for it; here's a glowing endorsement of Thug's work from CiM (whose work on Delsin and Headspace receives great reviews on this list, and rightly so) - "Still sounds amazing. Very _Bytes_ - which no-one else ever comes close to sounding like. So that's pretty amazing." Also Andrew Duke the man behind the excellent Cognition website rates Thug's "Isolated Rhythm Chock" at no.3 in the June Top 20 Electronics Chart against some fairly heavy competition, check out: http://techno.ca/cognition/ejune99.htm to see the competition. For those of you who don't like to purchase music unheard point your browsers at: http://listen.to/Aural-Industries for 30 to 45 second high quality mp3 sound snippets of some of the tracks on IRC or http://Aural-Industries.com.au and go to the downloads section and download some exclusive high quality full-length mp3's from Thug. Here's what Lee Grainge (of Fatcat fame) said on hearing Blat, the first mp3 on the site above "Wow. New Plaid?". Download it and see if you agree. Then if you want more of that sound purchase the CD. Also i'm sure those who have heard Thug's music already will agree... Thug's music is something you really should hear. Thug is going to be big due to the amazing music coming out of his mind, hands and equipment and this might be your last chance to obtain his first full-length!! So if you want to obtain a copy send an email to: <skimomusic@home.com> Regards, John http://Aural-Industries.com.au

yes, well maybe if the price tag was reasonable i would consider getting it: THUG : Isolated Rhythm Clock (AURAL INDUSTRIES) $19.99 US dollars. that's about $30 Canadian, around double the price of a regular cd here (or about the price of a rephlex at their newly raised prices..) and then add shipping. ptr

I was whining about the same time when I bought Bochum Welt's Rephlex album, since it cost me $33 Canadian and it was a 28 minute album... BUT... I'll be damned if I'll ever trade that one. And I think Thug's record would make a really nice addition to most collections, since it's pretty electronic music without the distortion for distortion's sake mayhem. Just nice melodies and crisp drum programming that sits nicely on repeat..... Aaron
