Kent, Why does Jared have to be ignorant to not like Footwork? It seems like Jared just thinks this kind of music does not require much effort or much of it is the same. I listened to the compilation album "Bangs & Works Vol. 1" and have found his sentiment to be true for most of the tracks on that release, with some exceptions of course. Now Jlin's release here is much more experimental and fresh sounding than the long tracks of TV show themes spread out over lazy beats.
