Easy! Das ist ein groovy beat was a sloppy album.... a boring, lifeless attempt of breathing life into a very tired genre. The first Jake Slaz album had its moments for sure, but diegb was a sorry attempt at jazzy funk.... oops. Urmur too had its moments.... indeed the track, "Let Let" is a fine example of squeeky drum'n bass that warped and waddles through polyrhythmic percussion.... yet so much of that disc just gets dragged down in monontenous blathery of drumloops gone stale. At least the disc was not at full price. You have to hear Tango'n Vectif to understand the comparison. Aaron
