i'm usually the one to talk about how brilliant mouse on mars are...and i gotta tell you...the 12" and the cdep are terrible. there's one mediocre track on each... as mentioned above, after such amazing releases as insturmentals and glam...it's very disapointing to hear this stuff... hopefully their new full legnth will be better... gotta tell you though...the new oval is imho the best thing he's ever done...(along with his remix of the pizzicato 5...does anyone know where i can still find that 12"? i don't want the whole cd...just that 12") -joshua...
