IMO: A wonderful life (from landcruising) this is just soooo full of soul. coming close: Neurotic Behavior,Chicken Noodle Soup, How the west was won (all from ART3) Andromeda, Evolution, Galaxy, It's a shame (all from psyche\bfc:elements) and, yes: Kairo remix (from remit recaps) (even if you all think it sux :) uh oh, I see something like what we had on the ambient list coming when someone asked "what's everyone's top 10 fax records?"... cheers, --tom

How about carl craig? I've never heard his music, does anyone have anything to say about it? Should I check it out? On Fri, 6 June 1997, at 23:45:11, Tom Tonger wrote:

suspiria is incredible, apart from the last track on the revolutionary art.. CD all the tracks are at least five years old.

yeah and the track 'chicken noodle soup' also on that album is incredible too, these tracks are also on the art compilation 'Objets d'art'. If you like any of the tracks mentioned above the following are a must: Pysche: Crackdown EP (transmat) :includes incredible Derrick May remix of Neurotic Behaviour. Rhythim is Rhythim : Icon/Kaotic Harmony (transmat) available on 'positiva ambient collection' CD in my eyes Carl and derricks finest moment the CD also has Black dog, aphex and irresistable force BFC : Evolution/Galaxy (Fragile) Old carl craig, industrial, very very good... FRS : Harder (global grooves/R&S) this is just a lovely feel good disco classic..! 69 : The sound of music CD (R&S) featuring Lite music (jam the box, desire, my machines) and sound on sound eps (rushed, frequency finale) Intergalactic Beats CD : Planet E complaition about 4 carl craig tracks including marvellous 'nitwit' also has an incredible version of balil 'nort route' better than the one on objet d'art. theres loads more too... anything on retroactive all this stuff is available from Submerge Mail order in detroit. http://www.submerge.com and the R&S stuff should be easy to get hold of too. oh... i havent listened to this stuff in months! im gonna go listen to the lot now :) -- k.F p.s. dont buy the recent landcruising album.... unfortunately it pales into significance in comparison to the above stuff...

That's the version I've had a dodgy tape copy of for four years and have long sought the original. The version on ART4CD is also inferior to this one. Is the rest of it good? It seems to contain several tracks I have elsewhere. adam

Yet to hear his new one, so the songs from that can't be in my selection yet, but for now my opinion goes something like this... Best track: Neurotic Behaviour Track that moves me the most: Oscillator Honourable mentions: Bug in the Bassbin (jazz mix) & Chicken Noodle Soup What are other peoples favourite Carl Craig tracks?

>bfc - evolution (fragile) so good global communication named their label >after it;--

I've been meaning to ask this for a while now - I have two tracks by Carl, both supposedly called "Evolution." The first is on the Planet E Psyche/BFC comp, the one with the heavily phased hi-hats and bleepy bassline. The second is on Transmat's 'Relics' comp, with a clipped, terse rhythm track (a slightly different mix of this is on the Psyche/BFC disc as "Galaxy"). I'd like to know which one really is "Evolution" (of course, both could be - Carl's done more than one track called "The Climax," for instance). More importantly, which one inspired Tom and Mark to start up their label? :) C. -- C.Hilker (cspot@hyperreal.com) "We don't relax, we Rolex"

Carl Craig has just released an album in the UK: Carl Craig presents, Paperclip People: the secret tapes of Dr Eich There's a page on this at the Ministry of Sound web site plus a write UP by DJ magazine. There's also a sample sound file. Check it out.

Shop Intro 69 ladies and gentlemen 69 my machines balil norte route future past clincally inclined piece free your mind eevo lute a touch of heaven hani tranq me shop nitwit dark comedy war of the worlds 69 outro Its all really good, apart from the hani and balil tracks i have all the others on the original planet e releases but its nice to have on CD ;) Its still available on CD... but not LP.. It really is worth it alone for the balil track.. and the shop.... and the 69 stuff.... you get the idea ;) -- k.F "I tried unloading banana trains and for while I had a job collecting horses hooves for a sausage skin and glue manufacturer.
