If you like melodic funky techno with a touch of house then this label is for you. Here is what Offshoot has done so far: Offshoot: . Bush Flange: Style Wars 12" (Offshoot/SHOOT 001) . Aubrey: Marathon 12" (Offshoot/SHOOT 002) . Obelix: Sublime 12" (Offshoot/SHOOT 003) . Aubrey: Octane 12" (Offshoot/SHOOT 005) . Skymaster (Mark Ambrose): Proton Beams 12" (Offshoot/SHOOT 006) My favorite is the Obelix 12". -->-Lance--- p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
