None of my records is for sale, but with right amount of money you can buy anything... Don't hesitate to make an offer, but remember that I buy only the vinyls I REALLY like, not the newest ones.

If you live in Europe and have some records from my wantlist for sale in private or in European EBay, don't hesitate to send mail.

I'm not interested in US EBay.

T.Power - Police State - Part 2 - 29-Oct-04 09:11 PM
This is the 12" that every jungle lover should own. I would rank this as the best release from T Power; complex, variable and progressive. Both tunes are growing bit by bit till the end from the beginning, an aspect which this genre is usually lacking.

Both tunes manage to be breakbeat, jungle, IDM and ambient a the same time. These tunes havent played that much, thats why I would say that perfect jungle/dnb party would end to Prospect For Democracy...

This release is something that you have to hear ... and beware, you'll have to hunt the 12" after you hear these tunes. This is even more clever than Mutant Jazz. Thank you Marc Royal, we want more of this kind of creative and innovative music!

Two Witches - Pimeyden Jousi (Remixes) - 06-Jul-04 10:50 PM
The original release came out 1988 by Darklands Records in a 7” vinyl format, as a split EP with Advanced Art. It was a limited edition of 300 copies and sold out in a few months. Before this 7” version, Two Witches recorded another version in their rehearsal room September 1987.

This “demo version” is already released in a CD “Into The Darklands – The Early Years 1987-1989” by VUZ Records, Germany. This time it was a limited edition of 1000 copies. “Into The Darklands – The Early Years 1987-1989” came out 1996 and were also sold out quite fast.

In 2002 the guys of Imatran Voima (a Finnish electronic act) took contacts to Two Witches, asking if it is possible to release some of their remixes, together with the original version. Before that Imatran Voima already played a cover version of the song in some of their gigs. And finally, the 12” vinyl of “Pimeyden Jousi” came out at 2003.

Again the release is strictly limited as 300 copies, all hand-numbered and with a lyric sheet + hand-painted sleeves.

Mr Velcro Fastener* - Otherside - 27-Dec-02 10:42 AM
This is a MUST for every electrodigger. After listening this record over and over, I must admit that my favourite track is Sunday Night, even though it's slow one, it has something very atmospheric in it. Esc, (An)other Side and Cityscapes are coming next in the line... Damn I like this record. Buy it! :)

Stereolab - 18-Dec-02 04:09 AM
Mary Hansen, singer and guitarist for the experimental pop group Stereolab, died on Monday, 9th December 2002, after being struck by a car while riding her bicycle in London. The band's official statement reads: "The suddenness of her death has shocked the band. Mary was a special person. Our thoughts are with her family and friends who will miss her greatly."

Hansen, originally from near Brisbane, Australia, joined Stereolab in 1992 after the release of Peng!. She also contributed vocals to bands such as Moonshake and The Wolfhounds, and made appearances on releases by Mouse on Mars, Brokeback, and the High Llamas, whose Sean O'Hagan has been responsible for brass and string arrangements on many a Stereolab LP. Mary Hansen was 36.
