I'm actually looking for a copy of this one on wax now also, it's their
first single and is only out on Matador Europe, which makes it a bit harder
to find than the domestic US stuff. According to Matador, they're working
on a full-length also which should be out later in the year and will be
released Stateside as well as in Europe. I really dig this 12", there's one
track in particular that has a repeating vocal loop saying "revelation" over
and over, my friend described it as a fusion between dub and trance and I
laughed at him until I heard it myself. Very weird record...Brock
PS - unrelated - does anyone know if I:Cube's "Adore" on Versatile came out
on vinyl as well? This one's a series of tracks that were on 3 12"s earlier
this year that I missed out on, now they've been reissued all on one CD but
I'm trying to find out if there's a vinyl version of the entire LP as well
so I don't have to hunt down a bunch of out of print 12"ers...while I only
gave it a quick flip-through on the CD player, this one sounded ace.
Ambient house like the Orb used to make, atmospheric and with traces of dub
and electro, a really nice chill/late-nite disc. But I gotta have vinyl!
Help anyone?
