Yeah, Ben Neill is another one of those dudes who takes the similar underpinnings of jazz and electronic music in directions it was never meant to go. It's like hey, this track is kind of cool- and then he comes in with his damn trumpet again. ARRGH. I never liked the trumpet anyway- It's BUGLE 2.0- just as cloying and nasal as the original regimental wake up call, now with three buttons for greater melodic range! Tom
