just picked this up last week. it's a not-bad updating
of raincry (though i still prefer the original for its
mood). the koma & bones side preserves the lovely
wail of the original and toughs it up with a really
sharp breakbeat, punctuated by that mean grinding bass
sound favored by jungle records. the other side has a
punchier, housier remix that's ok but not as pleasing
to my ears.
i mostly bought it out of fond nostalgia for the original,
but i do like the koma & bones side. haven't heard much
of the 'nubreaks' stuff, but have a friend who's right
in there and has been feeding me a few choice bits now
and again. so far, so good.
in other news, folks in seattle would do well to check
out the new location of beats international. they've
moved a block down, to the corner of denny & olive,
and the new space is fantastic. no more balancing on one
foot and leaning against full bins to get to the electro
and 'experimental' piles in the corner. :) there are also
half a dozen listening stations now, instead of 2 in the
middle of the crush. big improvements.
