This doesn't often get a spin and hardly ever a mention here yet, it's a good release. Okay, there's some pretty 'difficult' weirdness on a couple of tracks in the middle part (this is Victor Sol, after all) but, that aside, I still enjoy it ... for best Sol check out either Aerial Service Area or, +N Plane imo. Other views? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2001 08:05:56 -0400 From: "Mike Bennett" Subject: Re: (fax) Aerial Service Area series >... for best Sol check out either Aerial Service Area or, >+N Plane imo. Other views? I can't begin to agree with you more about Aerial Service Area, especially 2. The first one is quite mellow and droney, the title "Another Green Airport" (Eno-references?) says it all to me. But ASA 2 is something completely different, very spacey, still mostly mellow but nothing like the first one and with lots of interesting stuff going on in the background. It's been on heavy rotation for several months now since I got it. I highly recommend these disks but can't be held accountable for other opinions. It's just a matter of personal taste... carnival.of.souls / carnival_of_soles _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2001 07:42:51 -0500 From: Subject: (fax) fax f/s for sale, the following fax, $11.00 ea/postage included in the US, 3 for $31 postage included in the US silence 3 air 4 planetarium hubertus held dark side 5 (aw) polytime 4 seasons later, george ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2001 08:53:24 -0500 (CDT) From: Phonaut Subject: Re: (fax) Solphax/Globaline On Wed, 20 Jun 2001, Paul Milligan wrote: > Victor Sol, after all) but, that aside, I still enjoy it ... for best > Sol check out either Aerial Service Area or, +N Plane imo. > Other views?

The notorious Dr. Atmo appears on this album, although I can't quite hear much of his influence. Maybe only the track lengths themselves are indicative of his presence. "Attuale" is trance. Pure and simple. It's ten minutes of fast, repetitive trance. But it's not bad...it's pretty decent on headphones. It's got the typical early 90s Roland drum machine percussion and Base Line melodies. Pleasant, but not earth-shattering. "Katanga" is a lengthy acid workout. The drums don't enter until about halfway through the song. It's got some recurring voice sample of some guy saying something like, "Ahn, ahn, gahn!" or whatever. This is a decent, sleek track, but it's not really distinct. This is definitely more IDM than trance. "Spirituale" is a slower, leisurely-paced track. It's in the same vein as some Plastikman recordings (i.e., Musik) but without the overt 303 melodies. This is kind of moody, although it pretty much defines repetition, and is probably a bit too long. But hey, this IS Dr. Atmo, right? Perhaps the album's best track. "Speltrum" is a relatively shorter, trancier song. This track really reminds me of those computer demos made by the Future Crew around 1993-94. Same kind of hi-tech sound, albeit very generic. The closer, "Intellectuale" is a more tranquil, spacy acid soundscape. It's more of the same no-name techno as the rest of the album. Gamma is definitely a pleasant album. I like the tech moods and subdued percussion, which saves it from being an all-out trance assault. Like I said, I really don't hear much Dr. Atmo here. Maybe his influence slowed down the trance a bit (as compared with Massimo Vivona's other Fax album, Gorn). Nothing relevatory but good music nonetheless. forcasa ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2001 13:33:59 -0700 From: "Alex Smith" Subject: (fax) (OT) FCC and free speech Greetings, Pardon for an off-topic post but this is too important to ignore: if you care about free speech in US please read http://www.airbubble.com/your_revolution.html ObFAX: "Bauxit"/ Virtual Vices 2 Alex Smith Insight LLC _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2001 22:04:36 -0400 From: muziknut2@juno.com Subject: Re: (fax) (OT) FCC and free speech >>> Pardon for an off-topic post but this is too important to ignore: if you care about free speech in US please read. <<< I have that song--it is amazing.

I would have to agree that ASA 1+2 represent Sol's very best efforts (more so even than +N Plane) in fact I can't recall anyone who's heard either not recommending them! I actually prefer the 1st but, only because it's superb throughout, whereas I was a bit disappointed by the last 10 minutes of the 2nd, albeit that 5 minutes is actually nothing at all (see my 2350 review for detail). Another couple of those Sub Label releases which can still be ordered I think but, must be close to ooping. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 21 Jun 2001 17:11:54 +0900 From: Zachary Braverman Subject: Re: (fax) Aerial Service Area 1+2 Ordered from where, may I ask?
