the Saber one

a lot of those Saber ones are very good(check the discog i've done
for them @ techno.org)

Saber (like other Larry Sherman labels of the time-Housetime,Aka etc)
seemed to have disapear around 92

brothers" stuff that i have ("Battary Acid" on Vinyl Frontier , and
"Acid Syndrome" on Needle) are credited to the Phuture
