tf> I thought Optic Nerve was an alias for Keith Tucker (one of tf> the two original members of Aux 88). Anyways, Optic Nerve tf> 'Trilogy Wave 1' (DB4W-005) would have to be a lost Detroit tf> techno classic (circa 1995)... all three tracks are killer Red tf> Planet style techno. The other Trilogy Wave parts are cool tf> too, but not quite as strong as Wave 1.
My Optic Nerve records are at home, so you very well could be right. I thought it was both of the folks in Aux 88, though (and I'm pretty sure "Optica Nerve" was some sort of weird Pow Wow typo). I used to play the hell out of that triple-pack. In fact, there was a time when I bought every db release as soon as it came out, until I had, um, enough. I like techno-bass, but Aux 88 just kept putting out the records! I agree, the first is best, but Trilogy Wave is one of those releases that's never gotten its due. I don't know about "lost" though. I have a hard time seeing a record I personally own as lost. :) . . . the self-reflecting image of a narcotized mind . . . ozymandias G desiderata [EMAIL PROTECTED] desperate, deathless (415)558-9064 http://www.aoaioxxysz.com/ ::AOAIOXXYSZ::
