>Jared Wilson >F.T.M. Records Well then you'd probably haven't heard: Theo Parrish - Parallel Dimensions LP (Sound Signature) Robert Hood - Nighttime World 2 (M-Plant) Shake - Songs For My Mother (Frictional) Da Sampla - Samplaholic (Moods & Grooves) Sean Deason - Allegory & Metaphor (Intuit Solar) Kevin Saunderson - Powerbass (Sonic Groove) I believe that Axis 20 is a true classic - those who do not immediately appreciate will do so in future, like a fine wine matures with age - and those that love it now will cherish it even more. I caught glimpses of this when I first heard Humana and then some tracks from the 'From The 21st' CD. Its great to have an entire LP of this side of Mills I really enjoy - listening music as opposed to pure dance - DJ tools/ Purpose Maker style. The music quantity coming out of Detroit isn't as high volume as the golden years of 1991-95, however the class is still abundant for what is released. Now - The new Stacey Pullen LP. I wonder what the verdict is going to be - if it is in the direction of his last release 2 years ago on Black Flag or .....otherwise.
