I can't disagree with this more strongly..... I gave "It's not..." several listens, but found the tracks lifeless beatfodder. Nightmares on Wax's "Smoker's Delight" on the otherhand is one of my favorite downtempo trip hop records of all time. It's just so damn cool.... and does anything get better than Ninjatune's recent Up Bustle and Out record? I don't think so. Aaron np: kumo (airbag)
