His EP with Loops Haunt should be interesting. Also looking forward to a new album.

My word, that extract (I hope it's an extract anyway !) of Galaxy Mesmer is just incredible. That's probably the first new thing I've heard from Devine in, what, 6 years...

That remix is great as well. It seems as if over the last few years he's mellowed out a tad and melodic elements are becoming more a focus in the tracks.

(either that or they deliberately picked more accessible tracks so as to not freak out the uninitiated to his works)

Woohoo, new album! I hope he'll do some gigs as well. I saw him live 2 years ago and I thought it was amazing stuff.

RD has the coolest day job, but I am looking forward to some new tracks!

That Galaxy Mesmer track has this description: "Short demo of 10 sounds I created for the new Spectrasonics "Moog Tribute Library". All created with Omnisphere. No post processing or other effects used. "

kewl, never heard of the SoftStep software before, Artwonk etc look very interesting/obscure/unique
