[313] Harmonia Re: [313] Re: Scape One
Hello, The Harmonia stuff is not that hard to track down really. I know that Music Von is still in print in Japan. It is one of those things that comes down to tracking down specialist retailers. You might very well pay through the noise for bootlegs, but the audio can be obtained. A good retailer for this stuff in Detroit is Stormy Records. http://www.stormyrecords.com/ The Cluter material was good, but I have always had a soft spot for the Cluster and Eno records. After The Heat is an album of weird angular grooves. It is a very German, Tutonic rhythm if you know what I mean. There are echos of this album in a lot of the stiff German stuff that has been coming for the last few years. Very groovy, but not. ;) Cluster and Eno is more atmospheric. They are both good, but very different records. I still need to get my hands on Harmonia 76, which is Cluster, Michael Rother from Neu! and Brian Eno. My copy of After The Heat is a German LP on Skyy (sp Sky?) and I am not sure if it has been reissued or not. My copy of Cluster and Eno was reissued through Gyroscope on CD. One of the best musical experiences of the last couple years was seeing Roedelius play piano suites at the DIA. Very lovely soft piano music. If you ever get the chance to see him live, it is in your best interest to do so.

Cluster were the oddly named Moebius and Roedelius - and often Michael Rother of Neu! and, once upon a time, Kraftwerk. That trio were also Harmonia. Check out Harmonia's "Musik Von...", "Harmonia Deluxe". They're both effin' ace but far too tough to track down. I've heard a fair bit of really good Cluster stuff (though the fluctuating line ups of so many interconnected bands is quite confusing) and '74 was a bit of a "kosmische" creative peak. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [313] Re: Scape One
And another tune I forgot to mention: Louis Digial & Laszlo Kovaks - Change Position EP (Footwork) The people behind the London party I plugged earlier with the debut release on this new label from the Detroit/London IS12 collective, distributed through Ideal. Four strong tracks of hard-hitting, dancefloor-aimed, R&B-biting house material which will find a place in the box of many house and techno DJs alike. To be followed up shortly by 'House Ballads Part One' 12" from Detroit's unsung hero Mark Flash - definitely a label and collective to watch this year. You heard it here first :) More info etc. soon at www.footworkrecords.com Cheers, Tom | tom churchill | emoticon recordings | http://www.emoticonrecordings.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [313] Re: Scape One
> ...the new dimension5 on delsin... Yeah, this is great too - one of the most floor-friendly Delsin releases to date I reckon, proper moody techno. > and what's anybodies thought's on the stephen brown twelve on transmat > then?.. nice sleeve, shame about the. Yeah, I got this today - not particularly awe-inspiring I have to admit, but not that bad either. I need a few more listens I think (he says diplomatically!)... Some other recent recommended purchases: UR - Inspiration Great stuff of course, especially 'Transition' which is going to detonate on dancefloors in a big way... Los Hermanos - Birth of 3000 Really like this, both sides great, been playing it a lot over the past week... Recloose - Cardiology album (and Ain't Changin' 12") The album is fantastic, and looks like it's going to do really well for Matt, which is excellent. Ain't Changin' is out now too, the strong opening track from the album, and a great broken dancefloor burner. Still in two minds about the C2 mix of it though... Tiger Sushi - More GDM Vol 1 The Cluster track on side A is a Krautrock thing from 1974 which I haven't really got my teeth into yet. Side B has 'Present Pretence' from John Tejada which is simply superb - like a cross between his beautiful downtempo stuff on Defocus and his housier output. Highly recommended. Fabrice Lig presents Mauler - PGM 300/400 (Keynote) Finally got my hands on this excellent release on list-member Otto's great label (thanks Boomkat.com!) and very very nice it is too. More chilled and dubby than his Soul Designer work and featuring a great remix from Duplex - you can't go wrong! Fabrice comes up with the goods yet again, and congrats Otto on releasing another blinder! Ataril - Junction/Oh Ljuva Sommar (Republic of Sweden) Aril Brikha (still using an Atari, presumably) with two tracks of deep techno which again has been around for a few weeks. 'Junction' is tougher and more minimal, more of a club tune really, but 'Oh Ljuva Sommar' on the flip is gorgeous deep chord-driven housey techno with twinkling melodies and crisp hi-hats. Quality. Private Lightning Six - Look Straight (Pomelo) Haven't got past the John Tejada remix on here yet - superb electronic broken business from the man who can seemingly do no wrong, in any style. Deep, forward-thinking and musical with dancefloor dynamics and production to die for - I really can't recommend this enough. And finally, back on the Scape One tip, his forthcoming 'Planet Funk Express' doublepack on Electrix is very good indeed - a great journey through various flavours of electro from someone with a real passion for the sound. Soulful, well produced and funky stuff...

You > can check out the audio samples on the website (see below). Four tracks of > electro with a twist... Yeah I'll second this. A wicked EP of electro that manages to be very cool, but also with loads of energy to it. Definatly worth checking. As is the new Dimension 5 12 on Delsin, Dark Cities. If you liked the album and the first 12 then you are going to get this anyway, but if you missed D5's earlier stuff then you owe it to yourself and your love of good pure techno music to hunt them down.
