first a bit about some recent purchases:
Born Under a Rhyming Planet (+8, sorry, forgot the catalog #)
I feel a little strange reviewing this here, nevertheless i will do my best to
inform. I'm not a big ambient-head, but i haven't really bought a very chilled
record in a while so i grabbed this one. And i don't regret it (yet). It's a
very quiet, chilled record. There are beats, which frequently sound funk-ish,
or dub-ish, but they're way down in the mix. The sounds are frequently tinny,
but they are spread out (i guess you could say minimalistic). Overall, i would
say this record has a lot of ideas on it -- it's interesting to listen to, and
perhaps with time it will become inspiring as well.
Oh, and the tracks are: (on lovely transparent magenta vinyl)
A1 Admire the architecture
A2 Elephant
A3 Admire the furniture
B1 Spasm band
B2 Smerdyakov with a gun
Acid Pimp: Fire (in acid) b/w Strawberries (in acid) Cheshire 002
kinda old two-tracker; more 'tracky' than i usually go for. i bought it for the
b-side, which is a very tasty electro-acid track, which makes good hip-hop at
about 33 +4. a-side is tracky acid techno.
Also got an old BFC (carl craig ep) to try and understand what techno people
mean when they say "funk" (i'm still not sure) and the old depth charge full
length.
My questions: what is the correct URL for multipara's homepage? what label is
the only extant Germ full-length on? is it my imagination, or did a Carl Craig
comp. come out on R&S this summer; if so, what tracks are on it?
uh, that's it... thanks for your help & patience evry body
