hopefully someone interested in good hip hop would have more than three sources, since the only interesting thing mantronix has done in over ten years is to let omar santana remix "bass machine." i can see where PBO might not have list appeal, though. he substitutes street breaks for sad-boy industrial in the crunch and twinkle equation and no doubt leaves a lot of people behind. eric onnow: keith tenniswood mix at haywire
