I don't think its one of the year's best, but it sure is a good listen and he doesn't deserve to be trashed here by a rouge sheister whose decided to flood us w/hate mail. I really enjoy this album, but I also can't wait to hear UrmurBile...

Here's where I part ways w/you though. Ever since my disappointment in Expert Knob Twiddlers, this cheezy action has me worried. Granted, EKT is not a bad album, by any means.. but when I think of what it COULD have been w/these two twiddlers at work (based on their previous material) it sort of saddens me. I was really hoping for that collaboration to be a stormer, and it sort of flopped into my "novelty" category. I find myself yearning for more serious efforts in IDM, that's the style I like (ie the harder tracks on Gen.Star Wars for instance <shouts out to Anthony Bryan!!, your rekkids on the way> ). The stretching, pounding percussion of Dillininja gets my brain and blood pumping a thousand fold compared to that cheeze.. my opinion ...

Haven't heard the new LP yet, but loopascoopa is good.. so far, I can't find anything I don't like by the snapper crew.
