you really need to get a hold of the EP on skam (or a dub of it). 'Siamese
Telebox' is sooo sweeeet. My favorite freeform track, fav Skam track (well
up there with the Hellinterface/Abrhams thing), maybe even one of my fav
IDM tracks ever. <Why wasn't it on the skampler?!?!!!>  And for the record,
I don't see why so many people are playa hatin' on Freeform anyway, while
his stuff (aside from 'siamese telebox') isn't particularly outstanding,
it's on par with (or better than) most of the stuff that's hip with the IDM
crowd nowadays anyway. I'd much rather listen to 'glob' than say.. Marco
Passarani. At least Simon's trying to do something a bit different, not
just a rehash of the SOIDMS (Same ol idm shit)

just my 2sense,,
