I can't find the press release for the Deepfried Toguma CD at the moment, but check http://www.plasma.dk for some infos. Binger the Voyager's "Sweet Taste of Nothing" is on Oxygen Music Works -- I don't have a release date offhand, but check http://www.omw.com Not sure if either are in stores yet, though. hope this helps... p > -----Original Message----- > From: Howard Shih [SMTP:xxxxxx@xxxxxxx.xxx] > Sent: Thursday, September 23, 1999 9:45 AM > To: Philip Sherburne > Subject: Re: (idm) deepfried toguma > > could you provide more info on both of these albums/groups and if you > bought them online or are they in the stores now? > > sounds good! > Howie > > On Thu, 23 Sep 1999, Philip Sherburne wrote: > > > Don't know who the hell these guys are, or where they come from (well, > > Denmark, literally) but their album "The Hi-Fi Companion" > (Plasma/Pagoda) is > > a really amazing contribution to lush, melodic IDM.
