} > i just discovered i'm falling in love with 'on the wires of our } > nerves' album by add n to x (SAT 010-LP). what else have they } > done? } } 1) They're signed to Mute now. Have released 'little rocks in the } sun' which is an excellent 11 min. track - starts out quite } pleasantly, moves into darker d'n'b-type territory before } building noisily to the end (the vinyl's hexagonal which is quite } cool). No great change in direction from 'on the wires...'. } } 2) They have also done a remix for st. etienne to be found on 'bad } photographer' - very good indeed. Not a trace of St. ettienne on it } (not always a good thing) but quite lovely. } } 3) Remix of one of the tracks on 'Root' - the Thurston Moore remix } project. It's essentially an exhillerating build up of analogue noise } which really only serves to contrast the more structured tracks on } the album. These are few and far between but, surprisingly, Blur } manage to come up with an ace little number! add n to x also released in '96 the lp/cd _vero electronics_ on the blow up records label. this one is more freeform and experimental than _on the wires of our nerves_ and is excellent as well. you can check out the tracklisting, artwork, and a little blurb about the band at: http://www.blowup.demon.co.uk/addntox/ __________________________________________ E r i c F r a n s :: xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx [cellular] http://home.earthlink.net/~efrans [so-cal idm] http://home.earthlink.net/~efrans/scidm [si-{cut}.db] http://home.earthlink.net/~efrans/benford on: add n to x - vero electronics
