Ahyes, Tomita - I sortof grew up on that stuff. My 2 favorites were Pictures at an Exhibition, and Snowflakes Are Dancing. Fond memories of living at home w/parents, stuffing a towel under my bedroom door, lighting a bowl, and letting tomita transport me to an alternative universe.

A little while ago people were discussing Tomita's music. I went and found an old LP (hardly listenable now) from 1978 of Tomita called Kosmos which I used to love. The Star Wars Theme is excellent - really funky little baseline. I think I'll go and spend some money on Tomita CDs now :) Also listened to an old Yellow Magic Orchestra LP - BGM. Good stuff too, I'm sure Depeche Mode must've listened to a lot of YMO! Peter. np: Amon Tobin - bricolage. Love it! But on track 2 there's a deeply annoyingly flat sample. I would love the track, but I find it hard to listen to because of that bloody horn (generic horn - woodwind or brass instrument which I can't bother playing to identify). Anyone else find this? It happens with sample-based music, but thankfully not that often in quality stuff. Speaking of out-of-tuneness, that flute solo on the first track of Saint Etienne's So Tough is very flat too. Yargl. Wonderful band though. Great Aphex mixes on the Hobart Paving single too - thanks GRob ;-)! -- Peter Hollo "We are the future" -Future Sound Of London raven@cia.com.au "Let's get lost in intergalactic punk rock hip hop" http://www.cia.com.au/raven/ -Pop Will Eat Itself What's wrong with Mcdonald's? http://www.McSpotlight.org/
