Also a few records I picked up recently...
(REVIEWS OF: Disc, BT, and Company Flow)
* Disc "<transfer>" LP + bonus copy
Pretty dang essential to those of you here who are novelty suckers.
I don't much else about Disc except that his/her/their music is based on
messed up CD players playing messed up CDs, with the occasional F/X
fuckery. This record marries this concept with the RRRecords' locked
groove fetish to produce a very handy slab of vinyl..(that's cleverly made
to look like a pair of 12" CDs)... Lots of locked grooves, and a few
multi-minute tracks. These are some of the more interesting locked noise
grooves I've heard. Released on Deluxe records in Berkeley, CA.
* BT "Fibonacci Sequence" (one-side white label)
A track culled from Sasha's "Global Underground 013: Ibiza" compilation.
Certainly one of the best new school breaks tracks I've heard in a while.
For those who like Uberzone, Buckfunk 3000, T. Power, Bargecharger, FreQ
Nasty, etc... and yup, the song is about that dang infamous mathematical
sequence, doncha know!
* Company Flow "Little Johnny From The Hospitul: Breaks and Instrumentals
Vol. 1" 2LP
I slept on this one, but I found it used recently for $9, so why not?
Certainly belongs in the "Is it 33 or 45?" category... One of the best
instrumental break/hip-hop records I've heard alongside the latest by
Riow Arai.. I don't know much about Company Flow aside from a
Blackalicious remix, this 2LP, and hearing that name here and there in the
recent past. Any other recommendations?

I also skimmed through the latest by Funkstorung, and thought it was
pretty dang spiff... though I think the album design is.. just amazing.
