Although I like both Divination disc's, if you mention Laswell (and like Laswell) Psychonavigation (w/ P. Namlook) is a must in ambient dub. I guess it has been released domestically now (US) on Subharmonic. The first track is nearly 38 minutes of low bass and airy Namlook style sounds with a nice beat in the background. Track two is very ambient w/o much off a beat. Track three (bout 20 minutes long) is ambient dub at its best! Really one of the best pieces I've heard in a long time. Thanks for reading, MC
