Now that I have it in my player, I can most definitely affirm that the CDs are *not* identical. One is drones, the other a sort of Morning Light styled Locust. From the text printed on CD2: "This release is not a double CD, but a twin CD format.CD2 is not intended to be played on its own, but is an expansion to normal domestic playback possibilities. As a starting point, CD1 might be played on the living room's main CD system and the second 'drone' CD on a ghettoblaster or home computer...maybe from another room. It's an ideal world and with a little help from a friend, both CDs should be activated instantaneously, but an offset of +/- 3 or 4 seconds should still produce the anticipated intention. Relative volume level might me 3 to 1; listener feedback on any combinations is gratefully received." (Mark von Hoen) jeff At 03:35 AM 10/30/2001, Knapman, James wrote:

ok, i'm obviously an idiot... sorry. for whatever bizarre reason, i read the text to imply that as a "twin" CD set, they were identical. i thought "drone" meant not literally drones, but rather, like, well i don't know. sorry bout that. yours in disinformation, phil ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mxyzptlk" <jpklein@telocity.com> To: "Knapman, James" <JKnapman@PFS.Co.UK>; <psherburne@mindspring.com> Cc: <idm@hyperreal.org> Sent: Tuesday, October 30, 2001 6:12 AM Subject: Re: [idm] Re: Locust 'Wrong'

Ah - well I certainly didn't mean to harp on YOU, Phillip. Just wanted to clarify. When I'd made my original post, I was simply working from the info on Rioux's new release mailer. jeff At 09:47 AM 10/30/2001, Philip Sherburne wrote:

Ha ha! Sorry Phil, didn't mean to sound offensive - now that I've re-read my post it does sound a little harsh doesn't it? I was just concerned that you may have been sent a duff copy or something. By the way, where did you get your copy from? I can't find it anyhwere... )Jq.
