The new Aardvarck ep on Delsin is called Gensin. I have only heard it couple of times but I have to admit it that even though some "broken techno" stuff bothers me in the long run, i find that the tracks on Gensin are rather quite pleasant. Raw broken beats and breaks are subtly complemented by long synth sweeps. It differs from the other release i own, Cult Copy which is more 4/4 and dancefloor oriented, but i would reccommend the Gensin ep to anyone curious of the Aardvarck sound.
Btw, an Aardvark is an African mammal, about the size of a pig, that feeds on insects and small vertebrates and lives in huge burrows under the ground. It has big donkey like ears and a long snout with a pig nose at the end. It's long sharp claws make it a very threatening animal even to large predators. Theres was a cool comic called Cerebus on a humanoid aardvarck with special powers (i think). ----- Original Message ----- From: "Anya Stang" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "313" <313@hyperreal.org> Sent: Wednesday, March 12, 2003 12:18 AM Subject: Re: (313) Aardvarck > Aardvarck is Mike Krivits.
