- That's a shame. I'd agree that there's alot of raw, dry, "acid" if you
- will, material on +8 but the better stuff sounds great to me with no
- additional mixing.

- I got Probe Records' "Probe volume 1" (pro11 1992) on in the background.
- Probe is a sort of spinoff label to +8. This is a "slammin" comp.
- It features many bands already on other +8 releases.
-
- The pick to click: Public Energy's "Three O' Three" (J. Paap).
- Comp is at least as good as FOMTY v1 or BPFMT v1. I hear FOMTY v2 is
- mostly leaning toward the ambient side--something many will no doubt
- enjoy, but I won't be purchasing it.
