I'd have to agree on that, though Twisted Science was good, as were the
Ninja Tune posse.

Yes, it was odd when you could hear jungle in all 3 tents at once; pretty
lame stuff at that.

HIA very good - mostly stuff from Freefloater, I think. Hypnotic and
interesting at the same time. Not much different even though only Bobby
Bird remains.
Andrea Parker - also good, including sneak previews of the new Aphex stuff
and the full version of the Plaid track from Blech 2. R2D2 at 33 didn't
have quite the same impact, though.
I thought Being was good as well.
