Well, I popped on down to my local Tower to buy some exciting new discs and I couldn't find any. Sadness... I did get the new(ish) Grid single Diablo which is sort of good, but sort of cheesy. It reminds me of Swamp Thing, only it's sort of Mexican guitar rather than Banjo this time. I also got the new(ish) Deep Forest, Marta's Song, which is also ok. Kind of Deep Foresty. All in all, not the pile of new music I was hoping for :) Slim pickings at that thar Tower. They did have a lot of stuff which I would be excited about if I didn't already own it. Actually though, both these singles have a radio edit/mix and the radio mix on both of them is not very good in relation to the rest of the tracks on the disc. It's like they take a good track and then misadjust the pieces a little, make the transitions more abrupt, and call it a radio mix. No wonder this stuff isn't played on the radio! [fletcher]
