Are you sure it's not the UltraHigh alias of the Air Liquide crew??? I've got the UltraHigh picture disc 12" Primitive Love which, like all the other Ultrahigh stuff, is excellent. On a related note, does anyone out there have the early Ultrahigh 10" Revenge of the Mayan Gods???? whoa!!! thats all I can say... a long cavernously reverberated ambient intro which kicks into a very serious "duck and cover" siren sound and a pounding beat...oh, words escape me... the cd "A view of Ultrahigh" is also a "must have". I'm under the opinion that, while the Air Liquide stuff is usually good, that they put out the really good stuff out as UltraHigh... q out By pressing down the special key it plays a little melody... --- some stuff I'm working on for Syntext Communications www.amproductions.com/ www.amproductions.com/Syntext2.html www.amproductions.com/N-Rage.html ---

Uh oh. It could very well be. I might have switched the 12" title and the artist. I was told that it was an Empire project... but people make mistakes. Hell, I just made a big one!

well ... the lead-in (and standout) track on this new 12" is a remix of "Revenge of the Mayan Gods" - so it must indeed be the AL crew. sorry for the misinformation - but the rave review still stands. Just replace all Alec Empire references with Air Liquide references! (: GuerillaG / gman2

ok, my copy of the Poachers on Acid ep came in today, and well... even though it's gonna make known my small town roots, I gotta say... fuckin'ay! Yeah, a real stormer, made my nipples hard and I'm not ashamed to say it! The remix of Revenge of the Mayan Gods is a definite standout among 4 exceptional tracks, though if I could get ahold of the original 10 inch, well, that'd be nice too. Anyways, thanks to the idmer who brought this one to my attention... Also, are there any Ultrahigh discogs out there, cause I've got a couple of them, but need more! ciao q ------------------------------------------------------------ Music is prophecy: its styles and economic organisation are ahead of the rest of society because it explores, much faster than material reality can, the entire range of possibilities in a given code.
