I'm starting to agree on hearing his Hangable Auto Bulb ep last night, along
with Plug 2 and Mu-ziq's Salsa with Mesquite. While AFX's effort wasn't bad
it came across as being half-baked and really pailed into insignifcance next
to Plug 2. Salsa with Mesquite also was a little disappointing compared to
the only other Mu-Ziq release i've heard the Tango N' Vectif CD. Oh well, it
had to happen sooner or latter these future techno wunderkids might have
sparked early in their careers, and might never reach the lofty heights
again, attained in their early releases.
Bring on the next generation of future (dare I say it :) techno composers. :)
Plug 2 is brilliant, though!
Regards,
John
