it's great when you hear the artist actually twist the tracks a bit, isn't it. I hear he's touring Savath this year and that should be interesting as it's going to be a whole band then. What I love most about his stuff besides the glitchy beats is the jazzy vibes and the fact that it really lends itself to improvisation (that's the feeling I get listening to it) Cheers, roland --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
