hey, i have funki porcini's 'hed-phone sex cd' and right in the middle of it it has a break that ticks and scratches and then says something along the lines of 'your cd player will not faithfully reproduce track seven, please press pause and try again' i played it for a bunch of my friends who were hearing it for the first time on lots of strong acid. very funny. there was a hush and then a large chorus of "what the hell!?!" it's funny, on the outer sleeve of the cd it says 'if you are not completely satisfied with this cd, listen to it again and realize that you have wastyed your money!' later, peace, love and ambience. d... d@techno.ca orbital@clo.com http://www.clo.com/~orbital
