I was listening to the Aphex remix of 'You can't hide your love' on DMX Krew's 'Ffrressshh' last night and I noticed a strange crackle in the right speaker, at first I thought it was a dirty needle but then realised it was just that one song. After a few cones (not ice cream!) it HIT ME!! This song could easily become a club hit and make it to the charts because of its popy nature, so what Richard did in order to stop this, he added an annoying crackle in the right channel so that it can never be broadcasted on air because it's obviously not broadcast quality.... or do you think I'm looking to deep into it and it's just a scratch on my vinyl? .............. .... . ...... .... ... .. ..... ..... .... .... . . . .. ......... .. ...... .. ...

How is this album? I've got sound of the street, which I love (not that I want more of the same, as it is getting a little old..) Is it of the same quality? On Sun, 31 August 1997, at 23:01:43, April O'Neal wrote:

hello? that song sounds like what expose or b company did in 1987 --- listen to any top 40 hit of today and tell me if you think even that type of music hasnt evolved. and i dont think rdj goes around avoiding popularity. remember the plans (or did that ever happen?) for a tour with trent reznor? jif
