As Lance will tell you, you my friend are holding on to the Basic Channel
Comp. Execellent dirt dubby techno/ambience, though I did not spot any CV
samples.

Anyway if you ever see other CD's in metal cases (I think there are 7,
Lance?), grab them as they are 'the Basic Channel/Chain Reaction' stuff
we've been talking about recently on the list. They are all fairly crude
in their markings, but I think the BC one is the most cryptic...and all
are good, 'Monolake, the one you have, and the Porter Ricks
'Biokenektics' being my personal faves...

later

Nate
