I just wanted to say that i have really liked alot of the techno/electronic music coming from both LA and SF lately. The new Kit Clayton - The Mimic and The Model is really cool!! I have no idea if the name "The Mimic and The Model" refers to the project name or the name of the ep. I don't even know what the name of the label is because it doesn't say. I do know that Kit Clayton did the music and it's the best stuff i have heard from him. He has also released some stuff off the Cytrax label, which i think is pretty good also. I just got Cytrax 08 which has some tracks with Jasper and Kit Clayton. Good stuff. I also picked up Stewart S. Walker's single on the Belief System (005..I believe). Also pretty cool. I see that he has just releases a single on the Mosquito label, i expect that stuff to be a little crazier and harder. Look forward to hearing it. And finally Suketh, I believe he runs the Belief System label. He has released some fine stuff on both the Drop beat and Belief System labels. Good minimal techno. And n the drum n bass tip, I heard an artist Tom B. I think he is originally from the St Louis area. I thought his single on the label Intelligent was pretty good for US drum n bass. I'm not that impressed with most US drum n bass because it usually falls short production wise of the UK d n b. Plus, alot of the US stuff tries to add more hip hop influences. For those reasons, i prefer UK and German drum n bass. But for US stuff the Tom B is pretty good. _______________________________________________________ P.S. Anyone in the LA area should definitely go to the Crosswires event featuring a live set from Divine Styler, and djs John Tejada and Anthony Shakir. Don't miss this!
