it's from the first Technasia EP, "Theme From A Neon City," and can be found 
on a CD-5 that was self-released in Hong Kong (where the group's A. Khan and 
C. Siegling live) but must have passed through the Belgian Future Sound 
Productions label at some point in the process.

Monsoon
Descent
Crosswalk
Descent (Radio Edit)

there's been at least one other EP since.
you could always try e-mailing Technasia (xxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxx.xxx) for more 
info.

now on: fires were shot: for the hearth (it's ony me)




 I think that track is alot fresher sounding than alot
 of electro i have heard out there. Alot of electro is
 pretty cheesy and too predictable. The whole 80s thing
 gets kind of boring after a while. I really prefer the
 kind of electro that Electron Industries was putting
 out. Especially that Sem (2 x 12) called Demons (red
 vinyl).
 
 Anyway, I found some pretty decent stuff recently. I
 liked the new Mr Barth (C. Lekebusch/D. Roiseaux) -
 French Lessons (Wrong Step). It's housey but pretty
 downtempo with vocoded vocals. Pretty nice stuff.
 
 I also really liked the new Jason Hogans - Peter And
 The Rooster ep on Planet E. Pretty nice downtempo
 stuff with a some jungle elements on some songs.
 Planet E is always really good. Definitely, one of the
 most consistent US label with regards to QUALITY. I
 should probably go back and give that 1st Jason Hogans
 a listen. 
 
 Also found some good drum n bass 12"s this week. The
 new Hidden Face - 20/20 Vision (Nu Black/No U Turn
 sublabel) is really good. Bad Company - The
 Pulse/China Cup (Prototype) is pretty nice stuff,
 can't wait for their single on Virus to come out. They
 have a track called Skintag that's getting caned by
 all the big UK dnb junglists. The new Decoder &
 Substance - Heist/Curvature (Audio Couture/Moving
 Shadow) is also pretty nice. 
 
 I can't wait for the Optical remix of Ryme Tyme's - We
 Enter coming out on Saigon/No U Turn. That's going to
 be massive. I heard they are working on a video for
 it.
 Ryme Tyme is a really cool guy, great producer and MC.
 I've seen him a few times over the last few months.
 Expect good things from him! He has made some tracks
 with Dom Angas (Dom & Roland) and Optical. 
 
 
 Listened to the new Jega/Kid Spatula. Thought this was
 really unimpressive. Also thought the Tusken Raiders
 was really weak also.
