STC's ambient bleeping has a decidedly west-coast feel to it, with beats and an emphasis on the the high end of the EQ. I haven't heard nearly all of uwe schmidt's stuff, but what i have heard is much farther along the ambient tip, in my book. i've never heard an electro track released by either one of them. BTW: one of the best jonah sharp tracks i've heard is the south of heaven remix on trance atlantic I. when the bass comes booming in over the twinkling keyboard opener, it's a stormer. peeeeeeeeeeeeece, Jeff Davis <pHlow> ____--~~~~~~vvvv~~~~ oooooo 812.831.7846 jjdavis@xnet.com____---- ( ( ( vvvv ~~~~~~ooooooooooooo ___----( ( \ \ \ \ \ vvv oooooooooooooooooooooooooo ____---- ( \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ http://www.xnet.com/~jjdavis/
