Control Band, The - Susanna La Colegiala - 13-Jul-08 05:31 PM
The reason for getting this 12" is not the a-side, which is rather boring version of "Susanna/ La Colegiala", but the B-side "Someday", which sounds very much like OP.8s "Butterfly". Song writers credited are R. Hanson / M. Perretti, so an educated guess is that theyre the same Ronnie Hanson & Maxim Von Parrestz that arranged Butterfly. "Someday" uses very similar sounds to Butterfly, the bassline, the tempo, and other sounds. Vocals are in english, similar style to Butterfly.

Patrick Prins - Bailando Guitarra - 27-Mar-08 04:18 PM
"A Moment With The Mind" is a surprisingly ambient tune on this record. Quite smooth actually. Sounds a little bit like those early San Francisco break ambient tunes. "Bailando Guitarra" is very typical 90s dutch perky guitar sampling up-tempo house. It is the weakest track on this 12" I think, but no doubt folks in Amsterdam clubs went nuts for it. "Looking for 3-D" is deeper, technoish, still very dutch sounding with a hint of Detroit house flavours aswell... Very, very 90s sounding EP, which is a good thing as far as Im concerned.

Various - Best Of Acid - 02-Jun-06 04:03 PM
This is a good find if youre after old school Chicago acid sound. Rare tracks and old acid standards. It should read as "TRAX essential and rare acid", since almost every track was licensed from Trax.
I think this was one of the first CDs that featured these rarer cuts, that before had been released on various U.K. compilations only. Jack Frost tracks especially are essential. The sound quality is also good, these are not lifted from the vinyls, or if some are, they have managed to clean the tracks very well.

Amorphous Androgynous - Liquid Insects - 15-Mar-06 06:28 AM
Anyone watching the good old "Predator" movie from 1987 will instantly recognise the aliens snarling and growling sounds, and the eerie music that marks the predators presence. Yes, FSOL started "Liquid insects" with straight samples from the movie. Considering what they released under the FSOL alias, Liquid insects is surprisingly more darker and sinister, scary stuff.

Wladimir M - As The Leaves Fall From The Trees - 13-Mar-06 03:49 AM
This is one of my all time top-10 techno records ever. Its totally amazing that it was released in 1991, and even more amazing is the fact it has vocals with meaning and message! Especially "Evil" is a masterpiece, its almost industrial sound with a very sinister tone. When this record came out, George Bush Sr. was the president, and U.S. had been in war with Iraq. Today the U.S. "keeps order" in Iraq and George Bush Jr. is the man, and this record sounds as fresh and actual as ever. "Going south" is a shivering mixture of Detroit techno, old school euro/italo bassline sound and the crazy poetry of Wladimir, simply awesome!
