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. ======================================================================= Brian MacDonald <brianm@kuci.org> KUCI 88.9 fM in Irvine, CA -- Orange County ======================================================================= --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org

I highly reccomend the Rawkus 12" with Company Flow's "Patriotism". This is still one of my favourite hip-hop tracks of all time. To top it all off, you also get a slamming Mos Def track on the A side and a really good Diamond track too. Soundbombing 2 was great, but this is the most essential 12" from it. Colin.
