i think i'm with ya there actually. this seems like heresy but i think
dan's newer stuff doesn't really light my fire in the same way that the
old dbx material did. that isn't to say i don't pick it up but now i
make sure i listen to it first, whereas i used to just buy his material
on sight.
is it possible that the use of certain equipment (ok, i'm talkin rz1)
gave dbx such a distinctive style that it's kinda hard to move on from
that without people moaning like i'm doing now?
robin...
I think it sounds just like the old stuff,
don´t have it yet but I´m going to buy it, samples sounds just great.
maybe you´re people are getting old and need some "real" melodies in
your
techno ? ;)

if i remember right, i do not own this but my friend bought it, i think
this was made in the early 90's?
but it has that "classic" dbx sound. one of the tracks reminded me of a
cross between "high voltage and schizo" but the ep has the rare and
unreleased/older accelerate sound.
it is worth the listen and purchase if you are light in this dbx sound
