This record left our Ant feeling ecstatic.

Its an absolute pleasure to get to review Flourescent Grey's 'Lying On The Floor Mingling with God In a Tijuana Motel Room Next Door To A Vetinary Supply Store' We've been hammering the promo of this in the office over the last few weeks. Its one of the best electronic albums I've heard in ages. It's really all over the place. Think of the best bits of Autechre, Team Doyobi and Pthalocyanine. Strange sounds from another world collide with electronic noise, found sounds and cutting edge synthesis. There is an eastern vibe weaving in and out of some of the tracks. The arrangements are complex and you never know what's coming next. Quality experimental electronics at its finest on Isolate / Record Label records. Also in on Record Label records is 'Dastgaah' by Sote. Again this has an eastern vibe to it and tons of bizarre sounds. Its really difficult to describe this music really. All I can say is that its fresh, original, forward thinking and totally worthy of investigation. As is the aforementioned Brian English CD and der Kush Arora release which is a fantastic fusion of eastern sounds and electronics.

This record left Sue Jarnagon feeling ecstatic.

This CD was so amazing. This artist taps into sounds that are magical, eerie, wild and wonderful. The rhythms, beats and music stay with you long after the CD is over. I LOVED this CD. It was one of the best of this type I've heard. This young musician is really a genius.
