Here's a reply to the message "(idm) new AE 12"?" you wrote on Sat, 4 Sep 1999 11:00:36 -0700: >wondering if anyone has recieved their copy of the new Ae 12" yet, and if >so, what they think of it? how might it compare to what else they've done? Well, I think I'm the only person who likes 'Splitrmx12'. It's a nice change of direction, mixing in Gescom's simple, unmodified hip-hop beats with 'ep7' style melodies and sounds, although they've resisted the urge to use their regular line-up of Sonic Decimator style plug-ins, resulting in a more refined, less chaotic listening experience. Can't see what there is to be disappointed about, unless people were expecting more 'ep7'-style deconstructed electro-fucks. I'd love to hear an entire album in the 'Splitrmx12' style. -- Mark Stevens http://www.headspin.clara.net/
