tonite i picked up a cd on the sigma editions label out of (i think)
australia. the cd is by a group called minit. it's very minimal abstract
electronics cf. rastermusic, 12k, etc. -- very much in the vein of the
non-music music i was talking about earlier this week. i don't know much
about this label (i found a web site: http://laudanum.net/sigma/) but the
minit cd is excellent. minit is listed as having a couple of other
releases. anybody heard them? 

also, there is a release by a group called parmentier in the sigma catalog.
according to the information on the site, parmentier is former members of
thela, a popular (in the underground sense) experimental outrock trio
probably known by most for having a release or two on thurston moore's
ecstatic peace label. when thela split, one of the guys formed a solo
project called white winged moth, and the others went on to form
parmentier. does anybody have this cd? comments?

tia,
