Check it out at: http://www.superstudio.nation.se/vit/yeti/ The album "Holtkötter" is brilliant. For more info about Society, go to: www.ruc.com "Riding her" is also featured on the compilation "Monolithic Minds", which is a milestone of swedish drum'n'bass. I also have to recommend "Monolithic Minds II". Not only because I am a member of Juicehead which has one track on the album, but it is also a great compilation including artists like Quant, Friend, Spinform, Eclectic Bob, Grand Nip, Yoga, Baxter, Darchives and Perphane. *********************************************** * * * Fredrik Östling * * email: xxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx * * * * JUICEHEAD, MNEMOSYNE: * * http://www.audionaut.com * * * ***********************************************
