In case you missed them they were: . Cex: cells cdr (Underscore 01) . Temp Sound Solutions: 8-bit cdr (Underscore 02) . Terrahertz: first smoke cdr (Underscore 03) I did recoreviews of all the above underscore releases but i can only seem to find one at the moment: . Cex: cells cd (Underscore) Cells, the first release on the new Baltimore, Maryland- based Underscore label. Cex is the project of Underscore label head, Rick Kidwell. Raised on aphex twin, em:t, and the idm-list, Cex creates thirteen tracks of pretty original idm that sounds like a combination of the source, compost, schematic, and irdial label sounds. I know that's a pretty general statement but the style on this album is difficult to put a label on. Maybe mix a little Vulva, Elfish Echo, Peter Ford, Beanfield, Jeswa and Mariopaint and you'll have an idea of the sounds here. Cells one of the better idm albums to come out this year and that if you get a chance to hear this album i encourage you to do so. Underscore is a label to watch. 9/10 And coming soon from Underscore is the start of their Shift-Minus 7" series of releases. The first two are: unsc001. side a: cex "blearily wonky rock lad" side b: cex remixed by colongib "at least one unwilling...(at least i'm not made of tin mix)" unsc003 side a: kid606 "i'm just another cool cat out looking for a kitty" side b: kid606 remixed by chris coady "silver egg (silver ovary mix)" For more info on Underscore contact the top score himself, Rjyan C Kidwell (aka Cex), at xxxxxxxx@xxxx.xxx Some underscore websites: http://www.gl.umbc.edu/~nworth1 http://www.egroups.com/list/underscore/ -->-Lance--- xxxxxxx@xxxx.xxx xxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
