Very towards the hip hop side and has quite a few short fill-ins, but if you're into that sort of stuff, then you should get the disc.

Haven't heard this one myself, but I've heard its an excellent ep! With remixes by Squarepusher and Plug.

Haven't heard this album either, but if you can find the Kruder adn Dorfmeister 'DJ Kicks' cd, then get that instead, its an excellent mix of trip hop and drum and bass!

Haven't heard this one either :), but if its anything like the album 'There are String', then its definitely worth checking out. AtL-5

the EP is indeed excellent but the FP originals are much better than the remixes. too bad cos i usually love Plug. the squarepusher mix is more of his useless wank. ruins a totally great track. also the FP album "love pussycats and carwrecks" is monstrously wonderful. big thumbs up.

The fast, cut-up jungle stuff on the album is good, but the preponderance of lazy lounge-jazz tracks that don't start or end anywhere eventually cost F.P. its place in my CD rack. The d n' b stuff on Cujo's album on Ninebar is similar but more consistently interesting and the hip-hop tracks could serve as a lesson to the entire Ninja roster on the integration of real jazz and hip-hop.
