Roy Castle is one of my favorite tracks on TEEX3. The trumpet isn't technically great at first but I like the way he uses it towards the end (when the drums really kick in). From what I've heard off of Tango N' Vectif and Bluff Limbo it isn't all that representative. You can hear some samples in the Rephlex www page on hyperreal (and also in Alan's ZiqFaq which is there as well). As an aside, is anyone willing to part with their CD version of Tango or the PHI* single? (or know where to get one in the Bay Area? I checked all the usual places like Mod Lang, BPM, Star, Tweekin, etc. and evidently ear-rational is having trouble getting it recently. A guy at SoundWorks says the domestic is coming out but so far no one else has heard of it, and the import has been out for long enough that it is no longer stocked at places like BPM or Star). Later, -H-
