quick quick :-) Any hints on whether or not to buy Disjecta (burnished gold cover, something "pit" something something ??) which is on not greatly reduced sale - only one copy (Warp). Also : There's a copy of Off & Gone "Everest" (Harthouse) - same price situation (ie +- 2/3 full price). Is this worth it? What do they sound like? Any vague pointers appreciated. Thanks I * "Incomplete without surface noise" - Autechre

"Clean Pit and Lid" is by Mark Clifford of SeeFeel. It has a definite "SeeFeel-like" sound to it. Perhaps a little darker and sparser though. Overall, I would call it ambient on the dark side with many repeating elements. Personally, I prefer the first Disjecta release, "Looking for Snags". I like the whole SeeFeel/Disjecta/Scala/Locust sound, so I would recommend buying it. -Jeremy On Wed, 10 Dec 1997, Irene McC wrote:

very unoriginal crunchy beats type stuff.. maybe akin to ae's tri repetae. it's okay, but not very innovative.. i wouldn't spend over $10 on the thing. - wells oliver : s0ewoliv@titan.vcu.edu "all these things we'll one day swallow whole and fade out again and fade out again"

Hold on, are you saying Tri Repetae is unoriginal crunchy beats stuff? Tri Rep would certainly not be in this category in my book. -Jeremy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ http://www.owt.com/users/conflux - - - - - - - ignotum per ignotius ------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't see how Mark Clifford ripped anybody off, especially Autechre. His music is very minimal, much more minimal than even the earliest Autechre material. He's creating very subtle compositions. But, if you really pay attention they're quite entertaining and innovative. They're not for eveyone, but then again the good stuff never is! -- B R E N D E N
