(idm) some questions & some other things.

i usually get annoyed with questions like this, but what the hell - 
i'm nothing if not a raging hypocrite...

anyone know who phonia is?  have they released any other records?  (i 
quite dig _disco operating system_ - it's like panasonic jamming 
with, i dunno, someone else...)

how is the matthew thomas p3 3" cd?  i got _remodulation_ and it's 
definitely the best sampled-radio-tuning cd i've gotten this week.

is there a new fennesz album coming soon or am i hallucinating?  i 
just (finally) picked up _hotel paral.lel_ and i'm literally creaming 
my jeans, as we speak.  oh the disjointedness!  oh, the feedback!  
and if you don't already own _plays_, what's your problem?  oh, 
right.  it's guitar.

also picked up the pure _the.end.of.vinyl_ 3" cd; created entirely 
with run-out grooves (thus the title, get it?) it says, but has that 
very mego-ish error-musik feel.  no beats, just weird amorphous flow, 
not nearly as satisfying as institut fuer feinmotorik if you're 
looking for scratchy, raspy loop asynch-superimposition.

and if you buy only one cd of modulated 440 hz sine waves this year, 
make sure it's ryoji ikeda's _20' to 2000_ release.  i figure it's a 
good a substitute for EBS tests and 99% of the meme catalog as any...

also got a bootleg by this heat, caetano veloso _araca azul_ and 
algarnas tradgard this week.  but it all has guitars. :D

new reviews soon @ www.homestead.com/spleens/

sarcastically yours, in christ (revive the jizra!);
