some of the earlier releases, any recommendations? Are all the Central
releases from the same artists using different names. Thanks}}

I totally LOVE Central 06 & 08. I almost didn't leave the house last
night because I was so into these records.I guess I'll have to find
the earlier ones.

That's the Skinless Brothers I heard. I thought it was just ok, that's
probably why i didn't pay much attention to the label until now. I
like the tracks on the Claude Young Dj Kicks. So are Ratio & Skinless
Brothers just another name for Memory Foundation, that's the way it
looks from the  CY Dj Kicks cd. Is Die Rhythmiker also Memory
Foundation?
