Yesterday I picked up 'In Glorious black and blue' by Ronnie and Clyde. I was led to them by way of the Sons of Silence, who paired up with R&C on an excellent, recent 12" whose name and label I can't recall... The album sounds like a more accessible and faster version of the Sons of Silence (which is a complement to the Sons), with fairly complicated breaks and deep bouncy basslines. A few vocal samples, some tinkly piano, a little tiny bit of guitar, a little bit of electro flavor, and a large amount of echoey synth melodies. There's a smattering of DnB breaks on a few tracks as well. Overall, it's a good album. I enjoy it muchly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jonathan Logan Work: 415 543-2800 UI Droog Home: 415 487-0424 CriticalPath, Inc.
