dcom Posted May 15, 2021 Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) Patterned Media's first compilation with an impressive roster of artists, sounding effin' good. Bandcamp pre-order. Shout out to our @ignatius for appearance. Highly recommended. Edited May 15, 2021 by dcom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcom Posted May 15, 2021 Author Share Posted May 15, 2021 (edited) Spoiler Of course I fail to do due diligence every now and then, I'm human after all (I suppose?). Should I just remove the duplicate? Edited May 15, 2021 by dcom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignatius Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 a bunch of nice electro-ish tunes on this. a little bit of ambient and a little bit of weird. a good start for a new imprint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember ordering some Buried in Time releases directly from you like aeons ago, you threw in some CDrs as well. I've got BIT001-006, you threw in 001-005 when I ordered Habituation (2010-09-15) - and later, I ordered Milstein's 009 (2011-01-28) - I've got the emails right here. The Bot. EP is great, too, and I noticed I'm missing BOT.004-005, maybe should get them sooner or later. Edited May 16, 2021 by dcom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcom Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 (edited) Oh, I made a typo in the first date, it was supposed to be 2010, not 2019. Fixed. Edited May 16, 2021 by dcom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcom Posted May 16, 2021 Author Share Posted May 16, 2021 And yeah, I've got about everything else by him, too - the compilations, whether physical or digital. Everyone should have some Milstein in their collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
