          This came out in 92, but I swear the first time I heard it was on some pirate fm in 1991.

            First heard Icon on a Laurent Garnier X-Mix video. So it's slightly confusing the record seems to have come out in 1996 when the X-Mix was 1994. Maybe it was an exclusive for the X-Mix ?

              I wish there was a mix of Kao-Tic Harmony with only the brackground organ. I think I could listen for this loop forever.

                It is hard not to shed a small tear when playing this record. Icon for me. is Derrick May's best work. No matter what you think of May, he nailed this release. Big up to Carl for his input into this record too.

                  Maybe the best techno EP ever. So much emotion in its two tracks, a real miracle. Every time i listen to it, i'm lost in music. Composed more than 25 years ago, but still fresh, this EP is a must-have for all Detroit techno lovers, and others.

                      I don't understand why everybody talks about "Strings of life"... I don't like this track.
                      I think Icon it's his best track ever. Bleep melody style of Derrick May at his best.
