the chuck horn show in detroit is a pretty poor example as to what is
going on in the realm of electronic music.  He seems to lack an interest
in getting music other than what is serviced to him.  The starseeds album
" parralel universe " originally released on nova zembla I believe over a
year ago finally got issued domestically( the import was around 25
dollars) chuck horn often says " this is a new release simply because he
just got it in the mail.  Many people who have done radio shows know that
you get very little " Good " music as promos, and depend on their own
collections or local stores to make up for the material, where as chuck
horn is concerned this is not the case.  I wish he was on this list so he
could get an idea of some of the music he and his listening audience is
mising out on.  The infiniti album was released a few months back on
tresor( but has been issued domestically; which is the reason you heard
it, promo ) It's a great collection of music form juan atkins.  The
theorem th3 has been released for a while along with th1 and th2 both
great atmospheric techno, from dale lawrence, there should be a
cd compilation released after the fourth vinyl ( th4 ) that contains
tracks form all the releases on M_nus. Sven Vath has a pretty solid track
record for putting out some good music either the barbarella album, or
under his own name, usually hard trance material similar to hardfloor and
earth nation.  the blue room released material is middle of the road
trance that really doesn't grab you but is still listenable, but lack any
staying power in my collection.

hope this helps,

Bryan
