P.S. I Love You 7 reviews Kid606
Efa Imports, 2000
sonic shifts to savor
+ super glitch + Try this in headphones
Anyone who would like to discredit kid 606 for this album and it's great musicality has to be insane. It proves not only is he a powerbook master, but he is also maturing beyond the juvenile "down with the scene" which was a great album, but not as stylized, nor developed as PS I love you. ...

John Cage Visual Art: To Sober and Quiet the Mind 1 review Kathan Brown
Crown Point Press, 2001
A masterful overview of Cage's visual art.
This is a very beautiful book, with the focus on Cage's print works. One will also find examples of Cage's drawings and watercolors, but they are included here more as a referance point to the print works. The works focussed on in this book are a wonderful selection of his prints, all done at the ...

Lauwarm Instrumentals 4 reviews Scanner
Sulfur Records, 1999
A great album that will please fans of experimental music...
+ Abstract, electronic masterpiece
Obviously, this isn't the kind of CD that you dance to. That being said, it's put together in a way that SHOULD make most, if not all electronic artists jealous: thoughtfully (though experimentally). Scanner's little fragments of conversations fit into the mix of different types of music and ...

Early Modulations: Vintage Volts 2 reviews Various Artists
Caipirinha Music, 2000
Essential listening
+ Early Modulations is essential listening
The film "Modulations" as directed by Iara Lee had a rather bold ambition to document the entire history of electronic music, starting in its earliest days and working its way to the present. However, such an effort may be ambitious, but not realistic. Because of this, Modulations was enjoyable ...

Sweep the Desert 2 reviews Swell Maps
Alive Records, 2001
Experimental Maps
+ Really good - interesting, certainly, but...
This apparently was intended as a companion piece to "International Rescue" and highlights the Maps' more experimental side. I must say I strongly disagree with this approach to compiling a bands' output. Neither CD, by itself, gives a good impression of what the band intended or acheived with ...
