Hmmm....new Skampler...new Muziq...new Drexciya...too many others... Don't think I'll be listening to Prodigy any time soon! Seriously this guy I work with, whose idea of IDM is limited to Chemicals and Prodigy (I feel sorry for him but I've already tried to convert him w/o success) 'lent' me the disk the day it came out. I played it to humor him...yeah it sucked (big surprise). The music was about as deep as a kiddie pool. Not that I would get visibly angry at my friend, but I'm really disappointed that he not only likes the stuff but blasts it out of his car on the way out of the parking lot. I predict a mass of Prodigy CD's popping up in the used bin next to Bush over the nest 3-5 months. Rock on. Nate On Mon, 14 Jul 1997, charlesian wrote:
