Eon's Delta 12" came out about six months ago on Peter 
Ford's PAL label. It's four tracks altogether, three 
minimalish techno cuts and one electo piece. It wasn't 
a great 12" but an interesting listen nonetheless. I
believe Eon's Phaze Test & Wave Angel 12"s on electron 
Industries and his A Kind of Living 12" on Vinyl Solution
are his best releases under that guise. Ian Loveday's best
work under any guise are his 12"s on the Trelik label as
Tan Ru and Minimal Man with buddy Peter Ford. Those are
classic techno tracks.

I much prefer the first and third PAL 12"s. they feature
a much better mix of abstract techno and electro grooves.
A review of Birds One/111 12" (PAL 03) is forthcoming in
my next edition of Recoreviews.
