Humanoid sessions 84-88 on rephlex is a must have album. some seriously mindblowing little tracks on there.

the snoopdroop album is astounding

i think its pathetic to whinge about how rubbish the state of electronic music is, and how "its not like it used to be" etc. If people were actually passionate about this, they would be pro-active. Lets face it, with the internet, it really isn't difficult to do a bit of research, and go off and ...

just borrowed this CD from my friend, not heard it in 10years.
Our Graham's remix rocks! (no cilla black/blind date pun intended) :D

brilliant !
would love to hear some of those other tracks, especially the one with the RZ-1
was the rz-1 used for the little vocal stabs we hear on these early tracks? steve poindexter´s early productions relied heavily on that machine.....

what is geralds opinion on prebuild?

cheers again,
marcus

cheers

i can definately hear vincent price cackling away in there.....

downloaded graham's xfm-rinse set. really like this mix. the unreleased tracks 'laffa' + '13 13' are dope, (especially laffa). would like to see these tracks pressed onto vinyl.
ps, any news on prebuild yet?

much love+respect

josh wink? deary me....
listen to marco passarani, he does some great things with an SH101.
also...
ceephax acid crew is a bit of a mentalist on the TB303's
can't wait for prebuild though......
