hey there Alan,
Shapes and Forms is Diego Hostettler & Dave Ellesmere.
Diego is a techno producer from the new guard
releasing some glowing tracks under various names
(Diego, Echelon Network, S&F, etc). first discovered
his stuff a couple years ago on mp3.com where a GIANT
cache of his early S&F tracks were downloadable. i
too heard striking similarities to the BC/CR sound, i
could have sworn there was some sampling going on.
some of his harder techno tracks as Diego are
marvelous (check out Thirsty Ear from the persuasion
channel ep, or any number of songs from mouth full of
fresh cut flowers album). He grafts dense melodies
onto intricate beats producing these wonderful, dense
pounding soundfields. The Shapes & Forms CD on K2o
(
http://www.k2o-records.com/ ) is short, but both
powerful and diverse and showcases his talents nicely.
n/p
ps- i'm having problems sending to IDM list, you can
forward this on to it for me if you like
