One Third Standard Lux contains tracks from Bitstream's first outings on Signal in addition to a few unreleased ones. There is no way I could recommend this as much as I'd like, I'vee been following the Conner brothers' output on various labels since the Signal releases. Other releases on Modern Love (with the exception of Special Blends Volume One) are similar, too, and I highly recommend them as well. The latest offering on the label, Il.Ek.Tro's White Void EP is an absolutely fabulous release from the archives of Daz Quayle and Carl A. Finlow. I had the pleasure of hearing Finlow do a live set at this year's Koneisto (http://www.koneisto.com/) - his live set as Silicon Scally is very energetic, sadly a bit lacking on his fantastic use of exquisite melodies and string layers - nevertheless, I was very, very happy to finally have caught him live.

Re: (313) Bitstream on Modern Love
Hi! I really like bitstream as well, esp. the Monolith ep on Signal! Nice sounds! I don't know of an orange label. Just know about the monolith ep, Incubater and Monsters from ID on Signal and the Crab Nebula on City Centre Offices. Remco

I've been following the Conner brothers' ouput ever since I was introduced to them via the Signal label. On Signal they have released three 12s, two as Bitstream and one as The Monsters From ID. I did hear one of theirs which wasn't all that (orange label, can't remember) but I definitely think these guys are one to watch. Apologies if they've already been discussed. The orange labeled one is on Pylon, their own label, the release is named Retreat Pod. Besides the Modern Love release (Radiotherapy), there is a 7 on City Centre Offices as well, Crab Nebula. They have also appeared on Groovetech's Groovetechnology 1.3 compilation with the track Monolith. I heartily recommend everyone to check them out, absolutely blinding.

Re: (313) Bitstream on Modern Love
Fantastic! What a fount of info I've uncovered!! I'll have to try and catch up, I've obviously been sleeping. It's nice to see Monolith got licensed, it's definitely a classic piece of electro.
