In one fell swoop, Skam revives intelli-ambient-techno-whatever with a
subtle and powerful LP!  Nicely layered little arpegiations, key changes
and dreamy chord progs and atmosphere.  Warm...friendly... melodic, not
"cold"-ambient (like Robert Leiner (sp?) or noodly FAx modular jams(which
has its place, tho' for me, not so affectionately)

Hrvatski collab'd a great track on the Lucky Kitchen VideoGame CD "Blip,
Bleep"!  That cd is a gem esp as just sit down and listen (I played it
through the Playstation (hereto referred as " 'Station") and just enjoy
the twists and turns...complete entertainment! (imagination not included) 
favorite game idea is the "Family Tree Polo"...  any Vectrex fans out
there? 

I am again flogging myself for not getting my tracks done in time
(Varese meets analog Circus music, ala ultra-insipid infant video game
--you know the kind of game where everything is really BIG and SIMPLE,
with blocky balloons and bears on unicycles, only minimal gore...mostly
lacerations and broken bones) I'll probably use it elsewhere <sigh>, but
it just won't be the same! ;( late to the potluck at the lucky kitchen...
