Just picked up some very good 12"s this week at
my local record shop.
. Stasis: Block 12" (Pure Plastic 013)
- Steve Pickton cranks out some innovative
minimal techno. 8/10
. Fusion: Funk At Five 12" (Ferox 025)
- Russ Gabriel and his excellent jazzy tech-house. 8/10
. From Beyond comp #2 12" (Interdimensional Transmissions #5)
- Breathtaking electro from Sluts 'n' Strings & 909, Flexitone,
Phoenecia and 4E. 7/10
. Pacific State comp: v/a 2xCD (Deviant)
- 21 tracks of the best Japan has to offer in various electronic
music styles. Players include Ken Ishii, Boom Boom Satellites,
Takkyu Ishino, Co-Fusion, Nobukazu Takemura, Web, Hoodrum, DJ
Krush, Rei Harakami, and Prism to name a few. 8/10
. Decay Product comp: v/a CD (Chain Reaction)
- Another stunning cd from chain reaction. This one is a comp
that culls tracks from several of the 20 chain reaction 12"s.
As usual, if you like the basic channel sound this cd is a must! 9/10
. Gaz Varley presents: Tony Montana 12" (Studio K7!)
- A storming 12" of excellent minimal techno from one this former lfo
member. I haven't heard a pounding techno record this good in some
time. 10/10
. Insync + IF: Masp 12" (Plink Plonk)
- Some great experimental abstract minimal techno from some of my
favorite artists. People involved on this 12" are Insync, Mark
Broom, Dave Hill, and ? Pantelli. 10/10
. Mail Order Only comp 12" (Pure Plastic)
- My local shop somehow scored several copies of this supposed
mail-order only 12" comp featuring tracks by Repeat, Midnight
Funk Association and Mark Broom. This is a pure plastic treasure
for the amazing Repeat track alone. 11/10
Good hunting. I'm sure delighted with my catch.
