another great 1997 d&b release is the aphrodite compilation. it's actually not a compilation, just aphrodite in his various guises. every track is very funky jump-up style jungle. a great fun album. beats the lame noodling along of newforms and the like anytime. and why should lunatic harness not qualify as d&b? ("d" standing for drum.) cheers, --tom
