They are indeed based in Minneapolis. & The have more incredible records. Though I only got one EMF too: (On beautifull thick blue vinyl) ; Beverly Hills 808303 vs Autokenetic. - "#9" On the A-side: Autokenetic - "Black Belt" -> dark acid with cheesy rave Juno synth-stabs & a 303 that sounds like it tobs around in the bathtub. A bit like proto-gabbah perhaps. But nicer. 2nd track: "Blue Circle"- slow dark funky acid with latino rhythims & weird sounds from old synths. Though the A-side is good, it's the B-side that kicks major ass with 2 obscure tracks from The Hague: Interferenc -"electromagnetic Atmospheres". Very much in the style of "portraight of a dead girl" from the "I do because I couldn't care less" LP. That is raw (and I mean RAW) distorted lo-fi electro rhythims with a screaming synthline. But you haven't heard anything until you hear the last track: BeverlyHills 808303 - "Sick of Benedict" Funkier then a 1980 soviet disco record; A 303 and 808 are melted & layered together in A BIG, make it giant, smudgy & sick wall of sound. (That is being fed into a biiiiiiig distortion effect.). A perfect example of studio engineering par excellence. So this EMF record is pretty incredible too.
