In fact, XLR8R did a fine label profile in the same issue! LUOMO "Vocal City" on Force Tracks has taken the world by storm, SPIN and VICE gave the album fabulous reviews in their latest issues, countless other publications have it running shortly. Rumor has it that the 12" 's are warming up the house clubs (Danny Tenaglia, Mateo and Matos in particular have been spinning tracks from the album), not to mention it being caned over at Body & Soul!! The remix EP is in the works with contributions from HAKAN LIDBO, MATHIAS SCHAFFHAUSER, M.R.I. confirmed. Speaking of M.R.I., Force Tracks will be releasing their debut full-length November 28th. Our biggest selling Force Tracks artists for good reason - outstanding house. PLURAMON (Bit Sand Riders out now) and kid606 (p.s. i love you out October 17th) just finished a massively successful US tour helping promote their new albums on Mille Plateaux. Other upcoming releases on Mille Plateaux include the return of SND and TERRE THAEMLITZ. Force Inc. has been on a tremendous release schedule, upcoming releases include a brand new 12" from STEWART WALKER, and new albums from DONNACHA COSTELLO, UUSITALO (aka VLADISLAV DELAY), TOMAS JIRKU (a new Toronto producer who wowed everyone at Mutek this year), and to end this year the release of Force Inc.'s 200th release! Entitled "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", a collection of new, exclusive tracks from some of the best on the label composing uplifting techno burners that will be sure to bring attention to the new wave of techno. Contributions are provided from Auftrieb (aka Mike Ink/Wolfgang Voigt), Jasper & Kit Clayton, Vladislav Delay, Stewart Walker, Twerk, *G* (aka Gez Varley), and others. And finally, a track from Thomas Koner's (of Porter Ricks) Teimo album on Mille Plateaux can be heard in the trailer for sci-fi film "Red Planet". Koner is also performing October 15th in Montreal at the prestigious Montreal New Media/Cinema Festival. If you got this far, thanks and feel free to contact me if your further intrigued.
