I have them as Japanese imports ( $24? ). I bought them in NYC. Probably still in print in some fashion. Maybe the mail order and distributor types on this list know more details? Vat? David H? skimo? Lance? you usually have answers * to every discography question in the world*! Anyways, Harmonia: Harmonia is as essential to a "roots of idm" collection as *any* detroit, Kraftwerk, acid or any oldie- Amazing *driving* feeling moving music. The vinyl, in case you so desire and when you can ever find it, runs $30-65 for early Brain material, depending on the variants. Also, Anyone know if its possible to filter email adresses from incoming list *digests*? Just wondering... Also, re: Sean's post concerning buying label identity over label content: I too agree with the first responders comment that this type of consumer tactic can be applied to *many* labels in *many* genres. I think you are right by saying that certain folks buy up releases and keep them *even if the music sucks* merely because they're on ________label. I also think this isn't merely a SKAM phenomenon, as some people indeed * do* love many labels entire catalogs. I have yet to find a %100 *perfect* label though, personally.
