Although I can't wait to have that boxset in my hands, I'm
afraid their newer work will either sound like a cliched
version of their previous selves, or that it's going to be
in a totally different and simply uninteresting direction.
Not that it matters. As long as they release that boxset all
is fine with me.

Well, having heard their live show from last year where the
played all new tracks apart from "Hall of Mirrors" at the
end, and judging by last year's low-key Redcell release, I'd
have to say: WRONG ON BOTH COUNTS.

The one that came with one of B12's Mike Golding's
photographs, signed by the man himself, that one? I'm afraid
I do, you old... muff chops.

They're both awesome, I think you get more tracks with
Electro Soma so go for that. Plus it's got "Hall of Mirrors"
and "Metropolis" on it, track titles that mean nothing to
you now, but after you hear them.. ... will mean something.


Good man!

Does anyone have a break down of the track listing for the
boxed set? Or is that one still being held under wraps at
B12 towers?

Well, their MySpace says "B12 boxset - the entire B12
records back catalogue, remastered, on a 12 disc CD
set...2007" which I assume is every record on the B12
Records label, as opposed to B12 the artist, which features
mainly the act "B12" under various guises but also Stasis,
Kirk Degiorgio, Neuropolitique and a couple of others.

Whether it includes the Warp releases, with which there is
some crossover, I doubt it, but I don't know, so maybe I
shouldn't have responded.

Possibly, as you could probably fit all those 12"s onto.. I
don't know.. 4 or 5 discs. There's only 2 full on album
length releases on there, I believe.

yes, with a couple of re-apppearing tracks. this is madness.
even if with the two new singles and the albums on warp 12
discs seems like pushing the envelope.

o well...nevermind me, i'm still pissed about the seed

Part 2 > A retrospective set of London's B12 Records. We've
been wanting to do this show for many years, and decided no
better time in space than now: "Expressions of the Future"
as viewed in 1991 from B12 in London, through a lens that
built on Detroit's original foundation, but angled the sound
into a unique British unknown. Michael Golding & Steve
Rutter crafted this vision under numerous artist names on
their B12 imprint, releasing one of the pillars of the
Artificial Intelligence era, Electro Soma (primarily a
collection of their early 12"s), on Warp Records. We love
the 12" philosophy they adopted, with super-limited colored
vinyl among an already-limited total run. The records have
gorgeous cutting jobs with massive etchings before and after
the grooves, not unlike the look of UR/Red Planet records
from that same era. B12 was a key first step for UK's
clinical twist on soulful circuitry, we dug deep to play
many of their originals we had.

RIP sonicsunset ...

First an announcement: Due to big changes in our geography
and lives, Sonic Sunset is now no longer being broadcast
live on 89.3 FM Chicago radio. We'd like to thank WNUR for
giving us airtime every Friday night for damn near 10 years!
This is a bittersweet but ultimately positive evolution for
us. We'll release a few of our last remaining on-air shows,
and then continue to record mixes (less frequently) that
we'll put up on SonicSunset.com. We discuss this live at the
end of Part 1. Thanks to all of our global listeners who
download, you've encouraged us to continue even without a
local radio broadcast. Now, on with the music, 2 very
special shows we think you'll find worth the wait:

of the B12 Appreciation thread, a great mix for the hardened

B12's primary functions are in the formation of red blood
cells and the maintenence of a healthy nervous system. B12
is necessary for the rapid synthesis of DNA during cell
division. This is especially important in tissues where
cells are dividing rapidly, particularly the bone marrow
tissues responsible for red blood cell formation. If B12
deficiency occurs, DNA production is disrupted and abnormal
cells called megaloblasts occur. This results in anaemia.
Symptoms include excessive tiredness, breathlessness,
listlessness, pallor, and poor resistance to infection.
Other symptoms can include a smooth, sore tongue and
menstrual disorders. Anaemia may also be due to folic acid
deficiency, folic acid also being necessary for DNA
synthesis.

B12 is also important in maintaining the nervous system.
Nerves are surrounded by an insulating fatty sheath
comprised of a complex protein called myelin. B12 plays a
vital role in the metabolism of fatty acids essential for
the maintainence of myelin. Prolonged B12 deficiency can
lead to nerve degeneration and irreversible neurological
damage.

When deficiency occurs, it is more commonly linked to a
failure to effectively absorb B12 from the intestine rather
than a dietary deficiency. Absorption of B12 requires the
secretion from the cells lining the stomach of a
glycoprotein, known as intrinsic factor. The B12-intrinsic
factor complex is then absorbed in the ileum (part of the
small intestine) in the presence of calcium. Certain people
are unable to produce intrinsic factor and the subsequent
pernicious anaemia is treated with injections of B12.

Vitamin B12 can be stored in small amounts by the body.
Total body store is 2-5mg in adults. Around 80% of this is
stored in the liver.

Vitamin B12 is excreted in the bile and is effectively
reabsorbed. This is known as enterohepatic circulation. The
amount of B12 excreted in the bile can vary from 1 to 10ug
(micrograms) a day.
