well after seeing this thread I am really looking forward to these threads (after all they usually occur around the same time): what is idm? house sucks vinyl vs cd. bootlegging for fun and profit (ok I admit, I am fond of that one) a satirical post that proves some people have to much time on their hands is that fascination with monkeys healthy? idm content (sorta): picked up the following: john McEntire (sp?)/ sea and the cake seven inch. The McEntire track is exclusive to the 7 inch and the sea and the cake is from the soundtrack McEntire did (Reach the Rock). The McEntire track is a little dark, full of shimmering bass and interesting beats. Reminds me of a more mature fridge actually. The sea and the cake track is what the cure should sound like in 1999. also got the matmos/piano magic split 7 inch. The matmos track is completely nuts. More in line with quasi objects than the west. Damn good if you like that kinda thing (and I do). Also, when did lesser join matmos? he is listed as being a member. also got to hear a promo of the forthcoming pan sonic cd. Very good. Minimal and sparse. Not as in your face as the previous release. More like a mike vanio release but less minimal. -daniel
