I treated myself to the following CD's for my birthday: Orbital - In Sides Jedi Knights - New School Science Autechre - Tri Repitae I was so happy that I forgot that I was 25 years OLD. I have a few questions about the discs tho... Whats the deal with the Orbital? Why no listing for the second disc? Or is it the first disc? There are 8 trax listed...but there are what? At least 13 tracks total on both discs...is the second disc more stuff or remixes or what? And as to the Autechre... Track 6, disc 1....HOLY DOG SHOES! !! ! !!! I almost had a wreck...that's like, my theme song now... But why why why do they have to be so vague about their tracks?! The cover is totally blank, the listing inside has 3 titles...now whats that crap about? I love the disc, but man...maybe im being a major philistine here, but I really would like to see track listings just so I wouldnt have to tell people 'Yeah you know that track that goes ..er...bum bam badabad bum bading bang....' Names have decent uses even if its 'untitled #7' The Jedi Knights just plain stomped! I had to shell out 30 bills for it, but I blessed every penny after just the first track...Now THERES a damn good idea....Skip the wimpy hip hop trip hop....go col acid trance plus old school funk....that's friggin kewl. It is the UK import version I have...is there a US version? And why are these guys cds so hard to get? I dont really care cause i finally GOT...and I feel relieved after having never found the young american primitive CD couple years back... This music keeps getting better and better.. A couple months ago I though Id have a hard time finding anything cooler than Montok Point.... HOw goofy of me... And speaking of that...William Orbit's site features 'Montok Live' and unreleased track...Is there a remote chance that there is a single available of Montok point? Also, is anyone gifted enough to have the infamous orbit disc that was recalled and destroyed? It was mentioned in the last DJ magazine... Hmm... I think he should have released it anyway. Anyway, before I ramble... Just wanted to make those short comments... Reviews forthcoming Jasonosaj
