i'm probably the only one who thinks this but i think most of paradinas
stuff is total ripoff. tango n' vectif & bluff limbo sounds exactly like
old aphex twin, and his new jungle stuff sounds just like
squarepusher/aphex (ala RDJ album). the only stuff of his that is ORIGINAL
is the shit i *HATE* (jake slazenger, gary mosch-whatever-the-fuck-es)..
don't get me wrong.. i LIKE tango n' vectif, bluff limbo, and lunatic
harness - but Paradinas rips so hard on everyone else's style..
oh well.
