Here's a reply to the message "(idm) Warp 10+3 (Remixes)" you wrote on Sun, 17 Oct 1999 21:11:25 -0400: >I've heard some of Seefeel's work, but never bothered to pick it up. >I recall some simple techno tunes from way back that Seefeel did. You should check out some of Seefeel's stuff again. Each album has a slightly different style to it. My favourite is probably "Quique" (Too Pure), which is probably the best showcase of the entire group's talents (thereafter, Clifford seemed to take centre stage more). Everything sounds nice and organic, with a slightly unpolished feel to it that works well. "Succour" (Warp) is also another favourite, although this time the style is more stripped down, at times sounding like an IDM-ish hybrid of Cocteaus and Dead Can Dance with a sprinkling of Autechre for good measure. "Ch-Vox" (Rephlex) is quite refreshing -- Seefeel at their most ambient and minimalist, almost to a SAW2 extent. I didn't take to it at first, but over the years it's kind of grown on me. -- Mark Stevens http://www.headspin.clara.net/
