Recommend checking out Envoy's full length on Soma. It's an 11tracker (on vinyl, not sure about the CD version) called "Where There's Life...". Excellent melodic techno that should be up the alley of 313ers. He's also playing out live, which should be a treat because he's got live sax and lots more beside computer-only stuff on here while keeping it techno. And of course, he's doing some more singing as well. The more live techno, the better. Speaking of Soma and 313, think I forgot to mention the Soma out before this (i.e. it's already been released, Envoy is out in 2 weeks): Allergy, their second single, again comprised of Trackmaster Lou Robinson and DJ Reggie. Sweet, smooth, and should be in your crates. Theorem's third release in the series continues the high quality of the first two and came out last week. Word from M_NUS is that when TH4 is out they'll be put together as a CD comp, though it's been wondered what will be cut to fit it all onto one CD (some of the tracks are quite lengthy). And Tim Baker's "Star Trooper" album is out now as well. 8 tracks on the vinyl and 12 on the CD. A mix of percussion based tracks (check the Cosmic Carnival cut, likely to be remixed as a single, for some energized perwork) and melodic ones. It's out on his Elephanthaus label (Chicago) and he's been interviewed for a future In The Mix show. Baker has material coming out on D. Knox's Sonic Mind, Dearborn's Majesty, and a few others which escape my memory right now. UK alert: He'll be playing Magic Feet's Throwdown party in Nottingham in the future as well. Hope to have these sets taped for rebroadcast on Cognition Audioworks and/or In The Mix.
