Joey Beltram - Aonox

Been really enjoying this record lately. What an atmosphere! One can't really call it ambient or techno or idm, or whatever, because its sound is just so unique.

A couple of tracks for your pleasure:

Never heard this one. Sounds nice! I'll have to find a copy.

I've got mixed feeling about this one: I think it's both a much overlooked and underrated album, and a second rate polygon window-wannabee album at the same time. If it was released in '91 instead of '94 I'd consider it brilliant. So in short: it's good, but sounds like a proto-aphex rip-off.

Still very good though.

an over looked gem

Steve Stoll is a good comparison because his straight techno stuff fits well with Beltram's more minimal sound. and they both dipped a toe into ambient. I like the techno he did for the Sm;le label, especially Pacemaker.

I am not really digging these tracks. Beltram is brilliant, but more for his hard techno I think.
