Ich mag Suction. Denn Lowfish und Solvent moschen (endschuldigt dieses rock-orientierte Wort) einfach so dermaßen sympathisch in der Gegend rum, daß man nur hoffen kann, daß es sehr bald kleine Action-Figuren von ihnen zu kaufen gibt. Beide haben je drei tracks von ihren Alben genommen (das von Solvent ist bereits erschienen, s. De:Bug 10.98, das von Lowfish folgt) und noch je einen exclusiven Track dazugeschummelt. Nur Hits. Kleine verwurschtelte Anekdoten aus der Serie ģIch und mein Drumcomputerã, angereichert mit Melodien für Millionen, einer Literflasche Funk, analogen Brutzeleien und wummernden Breaks. Ganz großartig. 5/5

I like Suction, because they are moshing away (excuse this rock-oriented word...) so extremely sympathetic that I really hope that there will be small Suction action figures really soon. Solvent and Lowfish both contribute 3 tracks from the albums (Solvent's is already out, see De:Bug 10:98, Lowfish's will follow), and add one exclusive track each. Nothing but hits. Small, freaky anectodes from the series "me and my drumcomputer", enriched with melodies for millions, 2 gallons of funk, analogue fryings and deeeeeeeeep breaks. Simply gorgeous. 5/5

This is actually an LP-length 8-track vinyl compilation of two CD EP's from Toronto's answer to Rephlex records. 'Robot music from Canada' is their motto and they most assuredly live up to it. Label-owners Jason Amm and Gregory De Rocher take a side each to weave curious innovative aural adventures that reek of Sheffield's finest electronica one minute and diseased urban alienation the next. There is lonely beauty here, made all the more poignant by the record's very limited distribution throughout Europe (via New York's Serotonin imprint). Unique and highly recommended. 5/5
