Yeah,　I　like the fact SND are　pretty down to earth too. Basically happily exploring some outer limit of what dance music could involve aesthetically, with minimum wank about Deleuze & Gittari. ;)

I think Oval's Systemisch is an incredible record, same with Microstoria's Model 3 Step 2... or are the numbers other way round? Anyway, both amazing to listen to. Unlike a lot of the stuff that got presented on the Clicks & Cuts comps and so on, I found this engaging and enjoyable! Not that music should be listened to, of course, it's all about the concept. :p Take that straw man! ;)

And I reckon SND's third full length, Tender Love, definitely had a garage thing going on. The tempos were much faster than eg. Timbaland, the housey chords were there and the beats were swung to fuck. Timbaland, Neptunes, et al never swing, do they? I mean, not in some hipster sense, but from an anal technical perspective, it's all 16th and 32nd beats?

oh totally. you could easily mix SND with UK garage. and i'm fairly sure that's no coincidence!

however if you rate oval you should definitely check out the monoton: monotonprodukt07 CD from (gasps) 1982......

i really like monotoprodukt07, but it feels quite different rhythmically and
soundwise from oval. more drone-y, less click-y. less glamorous

Oral records in Canada reissues this and I picked it up from them...it is really incredible. It sounds like an incredibly austere version of the Moebius, Roedelius records on Sky. I definitely hear the Basic Channel connection, esp. on the first cut, also in the general "livingness" of the effects chains. I suppose the early Oval connection is the fetishization of the technology being used with track names like "Sawtooth," "Hz Waltz" and "soundsequence."

Thanks for the tip, Woebot!

Mark Fell's solo release on 12k is pretty nice.

so it is. i still love his secular musics of south yorkshire project though - ie. the one where he reworks the human league's "reproduction" album. the shirt trax cd on or, the .h 12" on hobby industries and the (more recently compiled) blir cd on raster-noton are also well worth picking up.
