I'm also guilty of getting into the more experimental stuff lately labels like mego, phthalo, soniq, a-musik, sabotage, moikai have been turning my crank lately but i haven't stopped buying other styles. still have pleanty of detrtoit, techno, tech-house, house and idm. i'll get those recoreviews out soon. >Detroit techno and ambient stuff doesn't really get a mention any more >but thats due to 313 and Ambient lists forming I guess. > I still LOVE detroit stuff. I have a slew of recoreviews waiting to be done, many of those are detroit releases. I'll try to get those reviewed on posted soon. >I think I had a point - blame my hangover. > Damn that sauce! -->-Lance--- p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
