Hardly any words, just beats.
I've given a _Instrumentalyst_ a few cursory spins at the shop. My impression was that it's exactly the same record, sans raps. I suppose it could grow on me, but my first impression is that there's not quite enough going on to hold my interest. On the other hand, the DJ Cam 2CD on Shadow is much better than I expected. DJ Vadim and DJ Cam just might make me regret taking the name of Ninja Tune in vain. What's the word on the new DJ Krush album? I'm a big fan of _Meiso_, but the new one seems to be available only as a very pricey Japanese import. Miles
