>Ok... so today I picked up the Telefon Tel Aviv album everyone is
>raving about. I'm happy to say that it does live up to all the stuff
>I'd heard and I really like it. Especially that second track (am I
>right?)! Its very good. Kind reminds me of parts of Savath & Savalas
>except better (and I liked S&S). So is all the stuff on Hefty all
>pretty and rhodesy like S&S and TT?

>Also I picked up the new Madlib instrumental disc, Yesterdays New
>Quintet. Its good stuff definitely. Madlib's infinite knowledge of
>soul jazz definitely goes the distance on this one, but on first
>impression, I still think the Quasimoto album is better. I think an
>instrumental version of the Quasimoto album might even be better. But
>I really liked that album. This one is really good too and sort of
>keeps with the assload-of-short-and-sweet-tracks theory that The Unseen
>had going on.

>Anyway, the real reason I wanted to mention the Yesterday's New Quintet
>album is because of something I found in the liner notes. In the liner
>notes, some guy, Dave Tompkins, is writing about some fictitious
>Yesterday's New Quintet gig. Its fictitious because the five alleged
>members of the YNQ are all Madlib. Anyway I'll just quote the
>pertinent portion from here:
>
>"Some kid pops his calculatedly mussed head in the door, 'Is this the
>Tyrese Two Step night?' Pickle slick rocking pleather Eurow
>mandals. 'I've got this ace lounge record by Jan Stenereud, the
>Japanese dealers are mad for it.' His sleeveless vintage T-shirt
>reads, 'My High School Football Team Kicked My IDM Ass!'
>
>Quintet bassist Monk Hughes smack him with a hand-me-beatdown flip-
>flop."
>
>So there you have it. In Madlib's stony worldview, IDM kids come out
>for 2-step night and get beat the fuck down with flip-flops. What the
>hell does that mean anyway?
