Fair comment Ken but...
Are they not slightly different to the vinyl though (I might have
read that wrong).
Also for those that have it on vinyl it's nice to be given a handy
mp3 for playing on the computer without all that messing recording it
in.

A nice gesture to be sure. Given that any major fan of Monolake/Henke

Yup. Foo Man Chunes are playing host to Monolake. I think it's next
weekend at the Gaelic club.
Also on the Sydney front - a few of us are putting a night on at the Sly

and I reckon you stand a fair chance of enjoying the music
A Monolake 12" containing the tracks "Linear", "Atomium", and "Reminiscence"
