tym ryan celebrates his new residancy at full tilt fridays grand opening, friday janurary 25th lacking in the info department? here it is : the longtime boston favorite returns to the decks showcasing international guests monthly, and local guests weekly. this week tym opens for our monthly guest ashley casselle (gatecrasher, bedrock, ashtrax, uk.) ashley is touring the US in support of his recent masterfull mix, response (automatic, uk) and there will be copies on hand to distribute to you folks. i picked up this double disc set this weekend -- it's got killer track selection (tracks from the likes of filter tip, microtek, astral projection, graham camp, and cass & slide) and the mixing is flawless -- no protools here! there's going to be a special champagne reception from 10-11 so get there early! as for the venue? tilt is sick! amazing sound system, plenty of dancefloor space, plenty of couches to chill on, cyro in case it gets too hot, killer lights, and the laser... OMG, it will blow you away. tilt has a special back entrance so you can avoid the lines out front and there is some limited free parking -- once that runs out the parking is a scant 5 dollars. once inside, the other rooms include a hip hop/rnb room (dj chaos), an 80s/new wave room, and a breaks/dnb room so there are plenty of areas for you to get down. full tilt fridays no sneakers, "dont look trashy" 1500 broadway (adjacent to the palace) saugus, MA $15 admission, or phatmike@isomorphic.net for guest list

hey, thanks for the birthday wishes, guys and happy b-day to you too, nyis4meatheads. heh. as for submitting demos, have your friend make a tape or CD and send it to the address i posted, or you could drop it off at karma on some friday night, if that is any easier. i'm there every week and i'm not too hard to find -- just look for the big fat guy with the mohawk. np : axiom ambient - lost in the translation

yo, 'no ufos' isnt all that hard to find, if you're just looking for the original track to spin out. it was rereleased on the waxtrax mixmaster series (jaun atikins, of course! hehe), but only the UK version, not the domestic. it is oop, but still quite easily had. i found my copy at newbury comics, of all places. (i've found more gold in newb's reduced vinyl section than i have anywhere else, belive it or not) if you're looking for collectors purposes only, good luck np : axiom ambient - lost in the translation
