Yeah, that Ionized compilation of artists from Brisbane has lots of potential. Look forward to their forthcoming releases. And basically anything by Salz is a gem. There are 3 releases so far and they keep getting better. The Salz remix of Phillipe Cam on Traum is also one of my favourites at the moment. Both releases are from the Cologne region and can be compared to kind of a crossover between Maurizio/ Vainquer (BC/CR) minimal house sound and the Robert Hood's deep releases on M-Plant. If you have the Kompakt Total 1 compilation there is a Salz track on it which is indicative of that ultra-slick minimal sound. The latest THX3 release on M_nus - Stewart Walker vs Theorem is the best in the series so far, Stewart using Theorems sounds and vice versa resulting in nice blend of ultra deep/ minimal textures whilst retaining that sophistication Theorem and SW are reknowned for. SW's Mobilization / Stabiles remixes on Tektite also features some gems, including that Sutekh remix (an alternate version of the track on Clicks & Cuts). Merrick Brown (Recept) and Female also contribute to some re-workings. A must for those who enjoyed his Stabiles LP. > btw: anybody have a copy of Salz #1 they would be willing to > part with?
