i dont know about the album, but i'm going to chime in and say that i
really love his record on surface. the second tune on the a-side really
does it for me in a aril brikha meets surface kind of way.

I think they're all worth picking up, definitely - I haven't got the album,
but only cause I never found a copy - but the EPs are all excellent.  A bit
harder / more minimal than my current tastes maybe, but all still very funky
and interesting...  I think he's one of the most underrated DJs out there
too

That album is definitely well worth picking up - I would describe it 
generally as more melodic.


Might have to play it this evening actually, I haven't listened to it 
for ages.

I think and this may get a load of emails back but I think Mac is one of the 
best UK producers out there and a very good DJ...another is Mark Broom.

Yes,
Paul Mac is definitely a top producer in my mind. In
addition to what you mentioned check out his album
Push Came to Shove. It has a nice variety. Also On
Going Saga Ep on Immigrant You Realize is a sweet
melodic track.

Great record.  Fragmented had some corkers... the Dan Curtin 'life in 
the savage garden' has some BRILLIANT tracks, one with absolutely 
jaw-dropping 808 programming and beautiful synth melodies, lot of 
momentum, an unforgettable track.  I'll have to dig that one out.  
Morgan G had a couple on EPs on there too.

that dan curtin is one of my very favorite curtin records. it's so so good. 
even at the time it came out the tracks were pretty old, think it's pretty 
early stuff from him.

the mg's are great too! rotating retrospective has a couple really funky-quirky 
different takes on room 120-2 from quadrilocular,  and the other one has the 
irresistable pico track. i have that paul mac too, i wasnt very impressed with 
it at the time but pulled it out and yeah it's pretty good. kinda in the same 
area as dan and morgan's stuff but with a little less personality and more 
smoothness. there was also that jaime reade (LHAS) album on fragmented, 4xLP! i 
only got into about half the tracks on it, but still, that meant like..10 
tracks or something...some great ones on there! like that very last track that 
sampled a loop from the strikers' body music (i think??), ran it thru a nice 
filter and threw some beautiful strings and piano chords over...o...gonna 
toss it on now actually..
