I want to subscribe too. Just got the "Directions" compilations from Fällt and it
offers very good songs by Ted Sulkowicz, Pimmon, Aut, and Stephan Mathieu. Tasteful
label and very talented artists/designers @ Fällt.

TENNIS : europe on horseback [bleep 03]
Europe on Horseback, as its title suggests, is a relaxed voyage. The rhythms slowly
draw you into a cushioned saddle and an electronic trot then begins, taking us
through fields of bubble bass, valleys of sonic glitches, and mountains blooming
with digitalia. Not quite as minimal as Pole but just as deep. They never break
into a gallop, conserving energy rather than letting it run wild. This record is a
form of deconstructed dub / house which avoids 4/4 time at every corner creating a
relaxed, challenging and accessible electronica lined with interesting bass lines.
A great full-length from bip-hop stables.

SPACEHADS and MAX EASTLEY : the time of the ancient astronaut [bleep 04]____May
2001
A world of high opera and tipsy beats that then cascades with a metallic pounding.
Haunting trumpet melodies over soft drones and textures sets the mood. The music
takes on cinematic proportions as the terrain unfolds. Interstellar landscapes are
revealed.
MAX EASTLEY plays The Arc. A nine foot long mono chord. One string stretched over
wood and played with a bow or glass rods. The pitch is changed by flexing the wood.
The string can also be shortened with clips. It is then fed into electronic
effects.
The SPACEHEADS is a duo mixing trumpet and electronics with drums and percussion.
Plaintive trumpet calls are looped across pulsing beats that propel us into sheets
of metal crashing and vibrating through tiny pick ups cranked to the full and then
spun into electronic webs.
