The thing is, the mystery disc isnt a white label, its actually got some
artwork that is blue and white (a swirly mess of blue and white) . Its
also in a simple brown cardboard sleeve (SIMPLE, not like MAS intricate
die cuts) with a normal label-hole in the center..It was priced as an
import , here is the COMPLETE info etched in the Runout:
-------------------------------------
AMPOULE
AMP001
Lucky & Easy (artist???)
A side: 1 Bully Summer
2 Night Rainbows
B side: 1 Kiss it Better
2 Wigged
(and then) recorded @ Pingu's Igloo
-------------------------------------
My Diskono's have not come in yet, so I cannot see if they are similar,
but Im guessing this AMPOULE record is too melodic in a VERY Black
Dog-like way to be related to Diskono. Id really like to know who is
responsible for this great record.. Easily one of my fav IDM (maybe
IDMish) records in a while
I must find the guilty party!
