I think Mr. Dangers started to be a tad derivative around Subliminal Sandwich... just my 2cent I don't think he's as much derivitive as he is just kicking his dead horse at this point. Those are some some really original sounds on Subliminal Sandwich and on Actual Sounds and Voices (my fave, too), but he seems to be falling into this rut of- acoustic drums with a dubby synth bass line with some squirrely squeaky synth sounds on top, and some occasional guitar parts. It's not a bad combination. He's just done it so many times now that I don't really care to hear it again. I would love to hear him do some things in a slightly more electronic direction like the Original Fire cd. Also the dub mix of Prime Adio Soup is one of my faves too. I haven't heard anything from the new album yet, but I am still a fan, so I'll be picking it up.
