Microstoria material is also well worth collecting! Microstoria's _snd album is still an alltime favorite and the reprovisors album has some wonderfully challenging remixes as well... -->-Lance--- lance@inaudible.com p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

"buy a fucking record player!" ;) I think Lithops has somewhat less mass appeal than Mouse on Mars. The tracks are very sketchy and loose, while the production on most MOM LPs is tighter. I just doubt this stuff will be re-released (say on Thrill Jockey). Anyhow, better make up your mind soon, the earlier releases are getting harder to find. (didot, the 7" releases) I got the last copy of Didot from Forced Exposure, or so I was told.

Microstoria is Jan Werner and Oval. The result is really more than the sum of its parts. "SND" is a favorite of mine (the title of a Microstoria release, not the group by that name on A-musik). They sound almost like glitchy oval music, but there's a smoothness and calmness about the sounds which really make it have a more personal feel. At least that's my take.
