sorry, I sent that email without finishing my thought....
The reason the hodge podge of releases indicates to me that RDJ is not
involved much anymore is, I think he would have thrown I Farted out the
window. He likes to "remix shit that I can make less shitty" and I think if
HE released CAT060, it would have a tracklist something like this:
I Farted-Aphex Twin's Rotten Cheese Mix (with authentic flatulent samples
from his truly)
Love Secretion (a playful 170BPM squarepusher mutation)
Let Me Lick You-Tootsie Pop Mix (as sung by Global Goon)
When I Cum on You (a typical sexual-frustration-sounding Cylob track)
