All his stuff pales in comparison to his first album Burn Plate No. 1. All the stuff to follow is nice in a floaty tinkly easy listening idm sorta way, but at least on the first album it sounds like he had some musical statement to make. I haven't even bothered picking up his last couple releases 'cause now it seems like he's gonna be stuck in that easy listening idm rut forever. 'Negativ' (Merck) [2001] is good - beats are pretty crunchy and in your face. 'Socially Inept' (Merck) [2004] is a little more 'refined' and more advanced melodically, but still pretty sharp beatwise. Both recommended. alan
