Drum Club, Adham Shaikh, Omicron, Woob, Mysteries of Science -- ah screw it: get the Plug In + Turn On compilations on Instinct Records if you can find them. I've collection many cds by groups I got into from those 2 disc compilations, so most of what I'd suggest would be on Instinct records. Fax apparently put out some good stuff back then, too, but I wasn't hip to that at the time, and don't really listen to that stuff much anymore. I don't mean to promote myself or anything, but I put together a radio show on live365.com that has a ton of that stuff on it, if you want to take a listen to it and see how it strikes you. http://www.live365.com/stations/278479 is the url. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
