Ginkgo "Eskimo Point" Album Review
Jangly guitar overlay will be etched into your mind forever!
Still in my top ten of lounge/trance/electronica albums. The jangly guitar overlay on many of the tracks will be indelibly etched on your grey-matter and will give recurring pleasure without the need of a playback device! Five+ stars. Will they ever release another album? This work is up there with the rediscovered works of Arthur Russell.

Emmanuel top "Asteroid" Album Review
Every listening you find something new ...
Around 1996 I get chance to listen this album on after party event. It is absolutely amazing. I am keen on techno/acid/hardcore so minimal techno is not my blood. Anyway THIS IS GREAT PIECE OF MUSIC. Long tracks, amazing "highs" (claps, close/open HH, snares) are the most perfectionist sound I ever heard.
Till 2004 i never owned original because it was hard to get one. So finally at 2006 I get my own original. I am glad to have it.
Compose/dramatic part of all tracks is perfect. The mid/high rhythms with the layers of extra sounds/loops envelopes is made near to perfection. Bass part is shielding the middles creating attention point. There are no "kickin'beats" just the supporting beats, subsounds.
A lot of my friends does not understand my "asteroidmania" till they got chance to listen, after they are amazed as me. And after i reveal the year of production and they fall back and sit with pulled eyes out. :)))
I think this is really good music, go for it.
cheers

Alka "Deployed" Album Review
Satisfies your minimal techno thirst!
This is an incredible find. Alka is the unsung hero of minimal techno, or they've just not had enough distribution/exposure since 2002 for this album to 'take off' yet, as the airplane-laden cover may suggest. At any rate, Alka's "Deployed" CD is rich in variety, yet strong in cohesiveness at the same time. For starters, the ambient atmosphere is deep, cold, and aquatic. Percussion-wise, some tight Autechre-like loops or sounds pulse in, but for the most part, it's the numbing techno kick-snare combo that is more prevalent. Acts like Porter Ricks or Fluxion are the closest I would compare in its entirety.<p>Is Alka original and strong enough to stand on their own? Absolutely. If you can actually get this CD even if it is back-ordered, do so! This is one of those albums that could be played from beginning to end in one evening and satisfy your techno cravings. Again, it is minimal, but it is also masterful.

Rob Dougan "Furious Angels" Album Review
Rob Dougan is Australia's answer to Moby...
...although he doesn't possess Moby's smoother, mellower voice, his style can only be described as that particular brand of "esoteric" rock (for lack of a better term).
I first heard the "Clubbed to Death" track while watching a Google video about the New World Order (the song was used as the background music for the video) and after reading the comments I found out whose music it was. After listening to "Furious Angels" and watching some of his music videos (which are pretty awesome) I became hooked on Rob's music. This 2CD set is a must-have!
