check out http://www.sra.at/sr/bands/243.htm - pretty minimal 
information, but it's something.  

i just recently picked up the cassetten-version of _monotonprodukt07_ 
and i quite like it (despite having to 're-mix' and re-eq it through my 
four track due to excessive cassette wear).  amazingly ahead of it's 
time in use of implied rhythms, beautiful submerged analog tones, yes.  
DAF vs. porter ricks is an excellent description.

my question is whether any of this material will be re-released...  
anyone know?  in the meantime i'll have to find some sucker who owns a 
bunch of monoton releases and offer to trade hir my copy of mask300.  
tee hee.
