---- NEW ADDRESS FOR MUSICAL SUBMISSIONS To jump right to the mailing address for musical submissions, please scroll toward the bottom of this circular for more information. ---- NEWS Two new shows are now available on the web site. The show featuring the Urban Landscapes Guest Mix from London's Break Reform, aired Friday April 4, is now available for listening at http://urbanlandscapesshow.com/shows/04Apr03.ram. Check out the excellent long-player from Break Reform called "Fractures" on their label Abstract Blue. You can find more info on the band, as well as listen to some of their tunes, at http://www.breakreform.com. THE URBAN LANDSCAPES GUEST MIX: ERNESTO, & IGUASSU The exclusive mix from Hollow Recording's Ernesto on the show broadcasted Friday April 11 was rather dope. It covered a variety of styles, and even included a few new tunes that he was involved in. If you've missed the show, you can catch it--along with the mix set--online. You can also find the tracklisting via the playlist. Check it all out below. Last week's edition of the Urban Landscapes Guest Mix featured Baltimore-based producer Iguassu. If you've picked up the excellent "Soul Searching II: Tribes Vol. 7" compilation from Germany's Infracom label last year, you will know that Iguassu's tune "Arrow Bicks" kicked off the album rather nicely. Listen to his mix, part of last Friday's broadcast that's now online. See the playlist below for tracklistings and the link to listen. This week's Urban Landscapes Guest Mix will come from New York's Qool DJ Marv. He was kind enough to pass on some of his mixes, including one that will be on this Friday's broadcast...a covers mix he calls "Sounds Familiar?" ECLECTIC GROOVES Monday April 14's "Eclectic Grooves" event was a lot of fun. Sure...it was Monday, only had barely two weeks worth of promotion, and it was raining too. But the people who were there had a great time and wanted it to continue even after we've had to turn out the lights. Us DJs had fun, as well. We'll have something up our sleeves come May, and surely throughout the summer. Watch this space for announcements, you locals. REACHABLE VIA ICQ I'm now reachable via ICQ if needed. The ICQ number is 211241007. Feel free to drop me a line! CORRECTION In the review of music from the last circular, I've named incorrectly one Paul Mitchell. It's actually Ben Mitchell of Mitchell & Dewbury. I knew that, but sometimes the fingers act as my mind! MUSIC REVIEWS COMING IN THE NEXT CIRCULAR More music reviews in the next circular; the reviews for 2003 thus far will be on the web site soon. Among the goods that I'll be reviewing will be a brand-new compilation from Nik Weston, the new long-player from Mitchell & Dewbury, the new single from Doctor Rockit, the fourth 12" from Citrona Recordings with new signing The First Floor Brothers, a couple of forthcoming 12" from Detroit's Moods & Grooves, and a couple of goods from Stuttgart courtesy of Pulver Recordings among others. WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR TRIP STORIES?? It's either sound like a broken record or keep up the encouragement, but more is forthcoming. It'll be awhile longer, but hold tight! ---- VELANCHE’S SOUNDSCAPES FOR APRIL 2003 (in no particular order) -Spacek—-Vintage Hi-Tech (!K7) -Break Reform-—Fractures (Abstract Blue/UK) -Hipnosis—-EP 12” (Perfect Toy/Germany) -Phil Parnell-—Runaway: Bugge Wesseltoft & Mantis Recordings Filmix 12” (Mantis white/UK) -Quantic—-Off The Beaten Track: Carmel Remix (Tru Thoughts CD-R/UK) -Anorganik featuring Sena-—Endlessly (Atlas CD-R/Hungary) -Dutch Rhythm Combo—-Go Dutch!
