Thule's new Mini:Malt compilation is a fabulous release infinately better than the Fishcake compilation (which i loved at the time of it's release but find it a bit samey nowadays). I would have missed out on this comp if it werent for Mr Kleine who forced me to check it out a few weeks ago and i'm glad he did because Mini:Malt features a really diverse mix of dubby techno, electronica, and even some trip-hoppy stuff. I know those are pretty broad categorizations but just imagine the deep Fishcake vibe with moulded into more experimental styles. Great stuff. -->-Lance---- PO Box 450715 Westlake, OH 44145 United States --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
