RE: (idm) gang of questions
4th world communication
here's what we know / have heard
melting pot "something's wrong" (10 denk)
lovely fluent drum'n'bass , with female/
male vocals , nice and relaxed for those sunday sessions
blue "mexican church" (emissions, i would assume...)
Yes, double LP , much more together than the "Resistance" set,
Dub soundscapes , sometimes with the beats so spaced that the
groove threatens to fall apart, other tracks on latin american/
salsa tip with a few hip hop abstract beats thrown in, underpinned
by wobble - esqe bass quake . Highly recommended
the kudos digest "c is for cherries" (kudos)(i only recognized two of the
band names on this compilation: fretless azm and micheal newman)
Not released yet! , from distributers of the finest music in the uk.
Check out Holistic, 7th Voyage , Ignition Muzik , Ifach , Pure Plastic,
10 Denk , Trelik , Honeydipped, Pork label to name a few!

is this the old double 12" , came out about 5 months ago!,
can remember getting good feedback from customers , can't
remember what it sounded like!
third: what's the story with this surgeon kid? i realize that it's the way
of the music press to keep the crank turning, but he was all the hype for
about two weeks and now i can't find info on the surge anywhere. opinions?
starting points? some pretty heavy fellas touted him playlist style...
Real name tony Childs , resident at a club in birmingham called House
of God , has own label Downwards , (11 singles to Date, not all by him!),
releases on Soma , done remixes for Dave Clarke, DHS , soundwise , reference
points Jeff Mills , Robert Hood , DJ Hell , twisted metallic techno grooves
with da funk!
