    I really miss the nostalgia of the 1990s when many of us non-mainstream yet not 100% avant-garde music aficionados relied on the quirkiness of labels such as Manifold to discover new wells of interesting music. I Vince recommending to me Mandible Chatter, Paul Schutze and a few other artists whom I was completely unaware of and then ordering the releases to my surprise enjoying the music with effervescent angst! These where the early computer days when I had a non graphical text interface and ordering from a list on the Manifold website. No MP3's no immediate fix just an anxious momentum for what arrived in the mailbox. I spoke to Vince in the 90s and from my recollection he was very personable and very knowledgeable about the avant, noise and ambient genre's. Everything about buying music today esp s is nowhere as exciting nor collectible as yesteryear. Thank you Manifold for opening our ears to the possibilities......

      One of the best labels for this type of music during the 90s and 2000s. Both the label and their distro were a huge part of the reason I got into various types of ambient and experimental music years ago. Too bad they aren't around anymore. At least most of the back catalog can still be acquired at reasonable prices.
