people on Analogue Heaven are all over JMJ.
you'd think that after 12 years of hearing people rave about him, that I'd
have given a single listen to anything he's made...

Wow I actually have time to day to investigate something that came from the
list instead of just marking for attention for a
later-that-never-comes
Sooooo........
Just had a listen and I think that's a bit unfair (or maybe giving it too
much praise!). It's not Icon. It just uses those strings
from the beginning. In fact I think they've been a bit daft doing so as
they sound really "grafted on" to a different track and
they're so recognisable you do go "hey! that's the strings from Icon!". I
reckon they'd have been better leaving them off and
letting peepz concentrate on the track underneath. Which is OK. People are
raving about it on that Ronan Fitzgerald's blog that
got linked on here (where I went to hear the track). But if I was going to
say it reminded me of anything I'd say it sounds a lot
like Jean Michel Jarre. Personally I think JMJ's underrated - you never
here much about him places like here or him being
namehecked by 313 cats etc and I admit he may have popularised stuff already
being done by others but I dig him and when I hear
stuff like this I just think "yeah OK, but 30 years ago......"

ohhhh!
..just listened and was surprised to discover it's an obvious
remix of Rhythim is Rhythim "Icon" (has the same strings,
hard to miss those!)...and it's pretty dope imo!
