The S.I.D. series 12's were EP's that were supposed to be
exclusive to the Submerge Somewhere In Detroit
store.  The idea was that the only way you could get
them was to physically visit the shop on the ground
floor of Submerge's building.  A few of them occasionally
turn up at other shops, though.  There were a
few previously unreleased tracks from Drexciya, UR,
and a couple of other artists released this way.

I'm sure some spotter has a complete list of
these somewhere. :)

Thanks to Submerge's refusal to play the
"release and delete" game, though, these
don't fetch the exorbitant prices
a lot of other limited availability releases
do.

  -d.w.
