Oh yes, Sigma releases some excellent stuff in the ambient/experimental styles that would appeal to fans of Microstoria, Koner, Oval, Pole, Cathars, Tom Steinle, and maybe Senking. My personal favorite is the Parmentier but all are very good. Sigma Editions Discography... . Rosy Parlane: #1-4 cd (Sigma 01) . Parmentier: luxsound cd (Sigma 02) . Minit: music cd (Sigma 03) . D. Haines: blither cd (Sigma 04) . Vladislav Delay: ele cd (Sigma 05) I also have a limited double 8" release by Parmentier called Odessa which is a little more drone-oriented than luxsound but still good. -->-Lance--- xxxxxxx@xxxx.xxx xxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
