smallfish wrote about cassette two:
Pub is back – at least I think it’s Pub. It’s all very mysterious, that is until you hear the tracks themselves and you breathe a big sigh and sit back with a smile on your face like I did. I forget how many awesome releases Pub has put out over the years and really he shows no sign of abating at all. Consistently awesome and always somehow inventive, Pub really is a treasure trove of wonderful music. Cassette Two follows neatly on from the first part with two more pieces of electronic bliss. The first track, Madame Chandelier Nip, is a restrained and elegant slice of offbeat electronica that has an incredibly deep underlayer of sound going on. You need to get this on the headphones straight away and underneath the clicky, hypnotic beat you’ll find some seriously fine background textures and melodic elements that you feel are almost like a special secret for only you to hear. It’s a magical piece that combines his penchant for field recordings and ambience with his well known rhythmic abilities. Gorgeous. The second cut gets darker with a more, well, I hesitate to say upbeat, but certainly more robust kind of sound. It works well against the first track’s peace and quiet by upping the ante and ending up being actually quite groovy. As you all know I’m a big fan of Pub and Ampoule in general so it’s safe for you to assume that I’ll be recommending this. Oh yes indeed. Quality and, as always, a limited edition release.

Excellent stuff as per usual, Pat.
These ARE really nice Pub releases, although the packaging leaves a bit to be desired (I bought a copy of each already) AND the extremely limited 3 inch concept is starting to get tedious. I wish he just go ahead & release a full length on a silver CD again!
Thanks for all your hard work providing these little ltd gems to the masses. Did you get any of the Making Tracxks before #6? I missed the 1st 5 & would love to hear those. Also the gone in a blink of an eye 3x3" live mutations. Anyone out there know where any of these are posted?
