Some of the new remixes sound interesting. I think Mark Bell remixed it. I know he produced the album, this is a remix right? Or just the album version >>Matmos recently did two remixes for "alarm call" off homogenic that came out really good. I didn't think that they would get used caus ethey REALLY tweaked with her voice, but they just got a call back from bjork who said she loves them. the new matmos 12" just got back from the plant. It is called "the west" and is a corelease between vagu terrain and an indie label called delux (home of cars get crushed). It took a long time to make and also features tortoise/aerial M guitarist Dave pajo and SF digital terrorist/indie junglist's homemade toy synthesizer contraption. no release date yet I guess. > And, no, I don't buy "all this Autechre vs Everyone > > Else Making Music bullshit".

Well Gescom - Motor is sort of weak. > Anyway, I was just mainly trying to say that yes > there are people who don't get into Funkstoerung who > aren't Ae-junkies. Alot of the Musik Aus Strom doesn't do it for me. I didn't like the Freeform, Funkstorung 1.08, and the i think it was the last two releases....I forget the names. I probably like about half of their material. I picked up the Bannlust - Digital Tension CD last night. I thought that had some interesting moments on it. There were 2 tracks I believe that ventured out towards Drum n bass, it kind of reminded me of Jega a little. I also heard the single with the I-F remix it all sounded pretty good. >>
