Hi, Does anyone know whether that bloke (i forget his name) from Deee-Lite actually ever put his 'Future Listening' solo-easy-listening album out? I was awaiting that....but never heard any news about it. - Ben --

I bought it, and for some reason I can't remember his name either. Coolerific stuff. A lot like Dee-Lite without vocals (surprise!). Excellent use of samples and lounge style music. It really isn't all that much like "easy listening". Now that I think about it, there is one or two tracks with vocals, but it isn't Kier. The subtle humor on the design and track titles makes it more interesting than most CD's to thumb through. My favorite track is "I Want To Relax Now!" which turns out to be a sort of wild upbeat marimba something. I'm surprised to see it on this list. I picked it up at a very mainstream store and its on a big-deal label. Nevertheless, highly recommended if you like Dee-Lite. Doesn't he have another solo album out? I somehow remember running across it in a stack.

Towa Tei. Great record. One of my favorites from last year. Pretty diverse, too. Some of it could probably be classified as "lounge".

Actually, most of the ten tracks have vocals. Obrigado and Batucada are the highlights for me. I think someone from Pizzicato Five appears on at least one of the tracks.

I would recommend it to people who don't like Deee-lite as well. It has a much more mature sound to it then the Deee-lite albums, IMO.

I've seen singles out for Technova and Luv Connection, which are from "Future Listening!". And I've heard that he's working on another record, but as far as I know it's not out yet. I'd be interested in knowing though, if you happen to come across it! On Now: In with the in --+ Brian +-------------------- http://world.std.com/~bgoddard/ -------------------------------
