The FSOL Message Board

That answer phone message from 'Tony Wilson' at 52:27 doesn't really sound like Tony Wilson (unless it's not *that* Tony Wilson) and when sped up by about 10% sounds more like Mr Richard D James.

Wasn't sure whether to put in here or t'otherwise but unreleased Gescom (Autechre's alter ego sometimes with other folks, sometimes without them) remix of Stakker Humanoid has just come to light last week.

Might have to get round to getting 1+2 out of the shrink wrap Man I'm slow at getting round to listening to their stuff ... (I do have a legit excuse but it's embarrassing all the same!)

Absolutely lovely artwork
