p.s. he's right, the MASK series kinda sucks
quoted 1 line>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
huh? wow. that's another good thing about mp3; you can find the tracks and listen for yourself to see what you think. IMO, the mask series is really good. the boards of canada track on 200 is one of my all-time favorite tracks (and seems to be a floor filler at parties too), as is the gescom on 500 (or whoever did the boogie down bronx cover)--actually, 500 is one of my favorite records overall. the BOC track on there has really grown on me although at first i thought it was too dark for my tastes. and as cheesy as it is, the midas touch track is nevertheless really beautiful, IMO. the freeform track on 100 is brilliant too. the rest of the record i could do without... but that freeform track... gotta have it. i mean, you can not like whatever you want to not like, but everyone should check these things out for themselves. the series is a very "important" one in terms of influence and popularity, and worth seeking out, even if only to learn that you don't like it, and even if you only here a (shitty quality) mp3. i can send a sampler to anyone who really needs to check out some of these tracks. btw, i still haven't heard mask300 (only one i don't have), i really need to one of these days--ironically, i've slacked because i've heard it's not that good. of the ones i've checked out, the only 12" i could give up is mask400. but then, i'll probably go back and listen to it some day and like it more. btw, can somebody tell me where the vocals came from for that mask200 BOC track? always wondered. j __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
