I think it was the green one and the silver one that I thought stood out,
as I jogged through them all in a shop.  I guess I recommend those if
someone was buying them without hearing them first... They were a little
too straightforward for me, as I like the minimal records that sound like
shuffling frog-croaking-noise or "gravel house", as I've started calling
it.  That is where the miminal tracks sound like a cardboard box of gravel
being shaken in a shuffle like a cabasa.  ...maybe a noisey toad or
belching whoopie cushion in there too...  This is what I like about a few
of the abstract Profan 12"s ("Diskoschlafen 2000"?)
