The Spooky side of the 10" is mangled drum and bass while the Spectre side has two *slow* sludgey hip-hop tracks w/o vocals. The Spectre tracks hang like fog. Its a good record but not ground breaking. On the Wordsound tip, the new album "Veve" by Equations of Eternity (Laswell, Harris, Bernocchi) smokes. Big hip-hop & funk grooves with dubby bass, ethno-percussion and spooky sounds. The voodoo and occult themes don't hurt either. Its surprisingly energetic and convincing as opposed to some of the recent Laswell side projects.
