objection m'lud.
actually, i never liked 'humanoid' - dunno why really, just never did it for me.
baby ford 'oochy koochy' is class though, and sure he did a really amazing and very larry heard-esque track called 'flowers' too.
that said, does anyone remember those videos of ...woah! like mental trippy acid graphics maaaan - we'ren't they called 'stakker eurotechno' or 'the acid baron show' something. they were pretty cool. fractals and solarised film of rides dancing about n stuff.

just remembered there was another 'rave/acid visuals' video that came out around then that rejoiced in the bizarre title 'acid dictators' and consisted of solarised footage of hitler, mussolini and idio amin etc doing their thang while fractals buzzed about the screen and someone plonked away on a xylophone in the background.
from a conceptual or marketing angle, just weird....

The sound track to the Stakker Eurotechno vid was released on Rephlex a fews ago. Pretty good stuff but the tracks are all very short.

I've got a copy of it.
It's actually really shit! There was a concept behind it, but it too was shit.
(I used to do the visuals for clubs like the Rocket on Holloway Road, way back circa '91/'92, so I had a library of that sort of stuff plus my own, for mixing live)

thought i knew all the fsol aliases
i think i might still have the free poster u got with the first Amorphous Androgynous lp rolled up round at my mums, the computer graphics still look mintchico enrico

could never understand why that 'papua new guinea' track was so popular. always found it monumentally dull. then again, i find most records that don't have 'video clash' samples in them fairly dull.
IMO thee most amazing song in the history of civilisation.

as an unashamed 1987-89 Chicago House purist and fanatic I still think paul Rutherford (yes, he of Frankie Goes To Hollywood fame)'s 'Get Real' is thee best acid track to ever come out of the UK:
A few other contenders spring to mind - Nexus 21, Adrenalin MOD, that first 12" by The Beloved and others i can't remember at present.
Anyone got a better suggestion or any others i've forgotten. Pre 1990 obviously and none of that, uuughh ... "acid techno" twaddle please
Never heard that before today, but it sounds just like 'breed' by Humate (Summer of 89 Mix).
You can hear it on one of my mixes in the DJ mix thread, but if you want a clip, check this.
