Direct from the K5 posse: The highly anticipated Penguin Mechanics compilation! -- Released 29 December 1999-- [KFAT003CD] 'V/A: Penguin-Mechanics Vol III' compilation 1xCD The mechanics were given nearly complete freedom, with the rough guideline of constructing a track that resembles the machine, combining recorded / synthesized sounds of -- klankgrinding, motor whirring, metallic collisions, beeps and buzzes -- into rhythmic components. Resultant mechanical devices complement one another: warring machines, lighthearted apparati, anxious robotics, mighty bomotractors with wide loads, thumping gadgets ready for inspection... all in the genus groovemechanismi. Features these artists: brothomStates, Freeform, Colongib, Versh Gear Choir, Bauri, Octopus Inc, V/VM, Proem, Pacman, Chaircrusher, Phthalocyanine, Lackluster, Miragliuolo, Cex. Packaging and artwork is special [and time-consuming! ;] different cover artwork and piece-of-machine for each] -- no 2 copies are the same (but all look lovely). Later on, for extra $ there will be an even more special packaging option (a custom-built mechanical, metallic canister). http://www.kracfive.com for mp3 sound clips and ordering ($10 direct). Also available from forcedexposure.com, skimo, bentcrayon.com, hopefully your local store, etc.. Other stores and promoters and reviewers make contact now. Quick big yard thanks to the contributing musicmakers. -- ___________________________________________ p i e t r o d a s a c c o a u d i o - n i m b u s c j a m 91.5 fm saturdays from midnight - 2am EST 9745 lynngrove cr, windsor, ontario, n8r 1b8, canada g r o o v e s m a g a z i n e www.groovesmag.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
