The cd with the most prevalent "scratches & whatnot" is systemisch but albums like diskont97 and dok are=20 much more in the Microstoria vein IMHO.

Oval's stuff is Mouse on Mars related because with the LP=20 version of Oval's Diskont94 album there is a bonus remix 12" with remixes by Mouse on Mars, Scanner, Christian Vogel and Jim O'Rourke. -->-Lance--- p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
