I just really, really, really love the shuffle and the sounds on this one

Is it really that hard to find? A quick check reveals you can order the CD even through a local online record store (www.cdon.com), whose catalogue is probably a hundred times smaller than the biggest online stores.

Jez Varley's little bro sorted out my first berry - what a claim to fame. Nice guy, but sorry LFO really aren't very good.

about Sheath:
I took four of the more mellow IDM jams a lined them up in a row without the dance stuff on a mix cd last year and about 40% of the people I sent it to were shocked about how good those tracks were and how they regreted not giving the album more time..
that sounds like a good idea actually

Here's a gift for you LFO fans, in case you don't already have it:
LFO - Slow Down Speedy
I think this tune was only released on an ancient Volume CD, plus on The Best of Volume comp. It's quite fun!

here's the thing. you're right, tuomas, i could get a copy off amazon.com right now.
but alec empire albums from the mid-90s go for $1-5 dollars apiece on amazon and ebay. you can get plaid albums, squarepusher albums, autechre albums for a penny, 50 cents, 99 cents if you dig.
i've been looking for years and years and i haven't found a copy of advance *anywhere* for less than $10!
what gives

Maybe it's just better than the ones you've listed? I'd definitely sell my 90's ATR, Squarepusher, and Autechre records for cheap too, because I find them mostly crap these days and never listen to them.

There are certain records you never find in the used records bins either, 'cause people just don't want to sell them. In August I had to go through half of Berlin's record stores to find some old Air Liquide CDs.
