I can't speak highly enough about the guys Pure Plastic. I've never come across
as genuine a group of people in all my dealings with any DJs , producers and
distributors over the years ! There's a really interesting mix of music coming
out of their distribution now as well. They're not exactly the most in
fashion distributor so it seems they tend to get overlooked in favor of the
likes of Kompakt etc, which is a shame.
Also.. Mark Brooms back catalog is awesome.. I'm still coming across new records
and aliases of his all the time.

 i think that's a little unfair.. pure plastic itself still releases some
 very eclectic material, from the electro of pp061 to oscar mulero's 'a occhi

 distribution deserves a great deal of respect as well, if only for the
 support it provides to labels like d1..
 
 i reckon the strength of pure plastic has always been that it can't be
 pinned downed to a sound, just a love of good techno..
 
 check for a really diverse set of music,

I want to clarify my previous statement regarding Pure Plastic-Mark 
Broom-etc. I own over 150 mark broom-related records on 
pureplastic-ifach-rewired-uxb-theory-a13-3zone-d1-trelik-pal sl-new 
electronica-ferox-plink plonk records. owning that many broom 
records, you can see i respect and enjoy broom  co's works immensly. 
my statement was in reference to broom's, pure plastic's, and ifach's 
more recent minimal techno outings which I dont like as much as some 
of the more melodic abstract outings in past releases. for minimal 
techno it is great stuff but i have lost my taste for minimal techno 
over the past few years. so i second eamonn's praise for the pure 
plastic guys. they have consistently released quality and often 
challenging undergrounding techno.

lance, it's not all minimal techno - can't be, i hate most of the stuff..
honestly, look at the distribution site - so many labels, so many styles..
some of it like paul mac and vince watson's inluenced label is deadly..

a record made by steve picton, ed handley, andy turner, baby ford, mark
broom and dave hill would've had both the idm and 313 lists frothing at
their grubby mouths 10 years ago - how come not now?.. personally i think
the split between listening music and dancefloor music has just about killed
all that was good about techno - so we're really lucky to have people like
broom and hill who just don't acknowledge it exists..
