Is the music good? This is one of the best sub-label releases...melodic, yet unobtrusive, with some really interestingly weird proto-minimal(in the Mike Ink/Kit Clayton/Pole sense of the word) techno percussion and bloopy blerpy synth sounds. Plus, funny heavily filtered samples of William S. Borroughs. I like this one a LOT. > - The MS-Series: as good as the Xangadix albums? Yes. Not as trance-oriented. > - A Day in the Park: I like some Atmo, and I like > Xangadix...is this decent? Yes, indeed. hypnotic. dark, squelchy analog stuff. Pretty long tracks, but you'll never notice. - --stewart - -- stewart fritz...... fax +49-69/450464 reviews... http://www.2350.org/ welcome to the electronic music center ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 May 2001 23:16:43 -0400 From: muziknut2@juno.com Subject: (fax) Fax around the world 1. >>> Again, I don't want any 45-minute ambient experiments. I really like the second track on Xangadix 2 ("Electric Eyes") and I'm kinda looking for stuff in that vein. Any help is much appreciated. <<< What's wrong with Dr. Atmo & Ramin's "Semarra" (40 minutes) and the entire "Cymatic Scan" (61 minutes) album, anyway? 2. Some time ago, someone argued that the British equivalent of Fax was the late, lamented Em:t label. I have to argue the same for a potential US equivalent--Silent Records, when it was owned by Kim Cascone. Although the label branched out into industrial and techno, through their Furnace and Flask sub-labels, they put out some AMAZING stuff. I was just listening to the Spice Barons and Heavenly Music corporation. Terrific--if you can find it! Cascone sold the label in 1997, it abandoned ambient music in favor of techno and house, and then it dissolved completely. :-( RIP. Peace. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 12 May 2001 14:37:52 +0200 From: j.burrer@t-online.de (Joachim Burrer) Subject: (fax) The FAX Compilation just a little info on the new FAX Compilation... there is a new compilation out on h&g records, a german record label.
