rumor has it that this is andrew weatherall under a pseudonym. if you've heard the latest dr ludlow and prof smith 12, the rumor would seem to have validity. it's a bit "goofier" than two lone swordsmen's *stay down* (due to some jokey vocal samples), but musically its crunchy, warped dub hop isn't that different from *stay down*'s eccentric electro. regardless of who created it, the new fat cat 12, rinsin' with the doctors, is recommended to those who like wordsound-like dub and instrumental (emphasis on mental) hip hop.

I am late coming to this but I just got my copy. Rumors abound that this is either Andrew Weatherall or the two lone swordsman. I have played it out a few times and would lean towards it being tls. One track in particular (the one before the song composed of vocal snipets) has a signature tls sound to it. It may or may not be tls but if it isn't it is someone who was influenced by them. Overall impresssion: a more experimental, fun (goofy?) tls sounding record. -daniel Head Monkey Mad Monkey Records http://monkey.eliteware.com

Either way, Weatherall would have contributed, given that he's half of tls. Are you talking about Rinsin' With The Doctor or the first 12"? I'd be interested to hear a review of the other one too. I'm in love with TLS - Stay Down. Steve Schultze daniel wrote:

I'm not sure when Rinsin' With The Doctor came out, but it was after Professors saying rass. I haven't heard it myself, although I'll probably order it. A description from Forced Exposure is here: http://www.forcedexposure.com/artists/dr.ludlow.and.mr.smith.html daniel wrote:
