What is up with all these comps on Shadow and Ninja Tune, that all have the same artists on them? Are they _that_ prolific that they need to have as many comps out as they do? I know I've got 2 of the Ninja Tune comps that contain mostly the artists listed above, and they're ok... nothing spectacular in my book. I've seen at least one more NT comp that I don't have, and at least 2 Shadow Records comps, one of which I have, again, with mostly the artists above. What I guess I'd like to know is: what is the best compilation out there that shows the cream of the crop as far as acid jazz/trip hop type music goes? btw. if this discussion isn't really meant for IDM, then e-mail privately. Thanks! NowListening- Ninja Cuts: "flexistentialism- 'the joy of dex'" So far, so mediocre. Current fav after 8 tracks: Kruder & Dorfmeister's "Shakatakadoodub" -- ------------------------- Visit the Digital Analogue World! guyjr@cc.gatech.edu | http://wc199.residence.gatech.edu/guyjr/guyjr.html a.k.a., Guy Elden Jr. | or The Future Sound Of London Web Pages! ------------------------- http://wc199.residence.gatech.edu/guyjr/fsol.html
