ah yes - the minimal sound of Sheffield! Many thanks for this.
XMP, you get better all the time! I just love Sandoz. 'The Voice of America' was one of my favourite albums growing up, and tracks like 'Breathe Deep' off the 2x45 EP still sound so fresh even today... then cuts like Oneski just blew me away when they came out under the Richard H Kirk moniker (about 30mins in on this lovingly compiled mixtape) - DJing that track was just fresh air at a time of too much trance in the clubs. And then as Sandoz when he gets on that electronic reggae tip he just can't be beat! Found this doing the rounds on the net a while back, may be of interest to other fans. (PC users may need stuffit to get to the good stuff)
it was actually the brother AMP who posted this, but we have similar tastes in muzak. I did post a Richard H. Kirk album awhile back (http://itscomingoutofyourspeaker.blogspot.com/2007/05/richard-h-kirk-earlierlater.html) but it wasn't quite like this. The Ring Modulations one looks solid. Thanks for the lnk. I think I've got Voice of America if you need it?
Awesome! I am so happy to have the Richard Kirk and Sandoz albums again! Thanks. Do you have any of the other Sandoz albums? I would love to check them out.
The other album I am looking for is 99% by Meat Beat Manifesto - a classic. Do you happen to have that one? Meat Beat are dons.
will have to take a look around for those...
hey anon, must be you're lucky day. i have 99% here on my work computer and so i've upped it for you:
