Hi, just wanted to let you know about some new Microcosm releases and MP3 availability.
MCOSM1008 - Macrofun Vol. 3 - Someone Else / Ezekiel Honig (10")
Two tracks of minimal techno variations with tight rhythms and emotional depth, with static and clipped syllables aplenty.

Check out the August issue of The Wire for a review in the Critical Beats section.
MCOSM1009 - Ezekiel Honig and Morgan Packard - Early Morning Migration (CD)
Abstract 4/4 rhythms made of an array of found sounds, coupled with supremely warm, deep pianos, looming, textural pads, and colorful, shifting ambience. Fragments of expressive sound rub up with real world edits, clanky percussion and long melodic passages. It creates a world that is introspective and melancholy just as much as it is friendly and inviting; just as natural and organic as it is electronic.
Audio clips are on the Microcosm site. This is available throught the US right now and will be more available throughout the world pretty soon.
Upcoming in October is MCOSM1011, a solo 12" by Socks and Sandals.
All Microcosm 12" and CD releases can now be found on the Kompakt MP3 site in high quality 320 kbps bit rate.
In case anyone hasn't seen this yet, we did a net release for free MP3 download in association with the fine folk at Minlove. Go here to check it out and download:
