In my trawl thru the =A31.00 section, down Record & Tape at Camden today,
found this verrrry interesting one, was well impressed! -

Society/ Occult Diplomacy 12. (released: Jan, 26th 1998)
(Recordings Undre Construction, Stockholm, Sweden)

A1 - Riding her
B1 Entering it

It sounds very Aphex/Squarepushie, full of incredibly tangled, fucked up
beats, lush minor chords weaving a dark run thru a maze in the background,
sounds like a mental choirboy alone in a dark cathedral at night, playing
mayhem on the organ, having fun testin out all the keys, knobs & pedals,
fuckin up the church music to the limits, swellin the cathedral with insane
ungodly sounds, then suddenly breaking into a calm with his pure soprano
voice echoing though the dark ...

On the inner sleeve, it says this about Society :-

"Society is Krister Linder and Katarina Eriksson.  As always from those
two, this is very personal sounding electronic music.  Fierce,
hard-attacking beats and suggestive worlds of sounds, well worth checking
out".

" ... simply gobsmackingly excellent ...."
Robert Heller, Mixmag.

Does anyone know any more about Society, any of their other releases?
