Now I'm reaching back into the empty dark brain matter here, but I seem to remember a guy who recorded as Optic Nerve, Optic Eye, and Optica??? for Planet Dog a good number of years back. I would assume this was not Keith Tucker. I can't seem to find any of those old CDs now (probably sold them), but I seem to remember the Optic Eye stuff was the only stuff I really liked, and seemed somewhat misfit for the label [read more techno content]. Of course, my tastes have developed quite a bit in the last six or seven years so I can't tell you whether or not any of that older Planet Dog stuff is worth listening to. The fact that I haven't pulled any of those CDs out in years, and may not have them any more might speak volumes.
It's past my bedtime.
