Yes when you go through a lot of music every month there are a few gems that sparkle a little more than the others - Oval's Systemisch and 94 Diskont have always sparkled for me (especially the bonus remix 12" that only comes with the vinyl verions of 94 Diskont). I'll agree that pops, clicks, skips, and glitches arent for everybody. But for me those little distoritions are the perfection of imperfection. : ) -->-Lance--- xxxxxxx@xxxx.xxx xxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
