hello i only heard that witchman track once, and my opinion was that it was far less interesting than the 2 eps i own, shapes of rage (leaf) <-this is the one to get - and states of mind (angel) these 2 eps are very dark and more diverse than you may expect... the breaks are not always fast... witchman is not strictly jungle, some tracks are more hip-hop or dub influenced... the unifying element is the murky, eerie production and mood which is very identifiably witchman i've only found witchman on vinyl but i've been hearing about a full-length cd for ages... ? solvent goodbye

I fucking love Witchman. One of my favorites in the drill&bass scheme (hehe.) Here's what i know about 1. Main Vein EP (1995) on Blue Angel - I really, really, really, really want a copy of this. Someone help me out (please?). PS it has a plug remix. 2. State of Mind EP (1996) Blue Angel - one side fucking wicked as shit experimental jungle, the other more of a darkside hip-hop thing. really nice. 3. Shape of Rage EP (1996) Leaf - incredible experimental breaks. his best. 4. Nightmare Alley EP (1997) Deviant - haven't picked this up yet. Modern Music told me it was banned from export? Anyhow I'm going to get a copy hopefully. from what I hear its more downtempo. 5. Explorimenting Bealts LP (April 21 - supposedly) Deviant - full length from the witchster. thats's what I know about, am I missing anything? _____ / ,-,_) /,_) (/ RESH Live & Direct from the G-Spot, Orange County, California, USA http://www1.linkonline.net/fresh/fresh.htm
