Well, I don't really agree... WT1 is one of my favorite records (only heard 3 in the store, thought it was alright but not as good as WT1) and the reason I bought vol. 2. WT1 is excellently produced I think - it sounds fucking rugged as hell (like it's supposed to), with big kicks and bigger basslines and lots of synthesized mayhem. WT2 is thin and uninteresting. Maybe that's because I have WT1 on LP and WT2 on CD, but it seems a little too extreme a difference for that to be the whole reason... What are the PurposeMaker records like? Are they "soulful"? (I hate "soulful" Mills records). ===== the humble abbott arthur purvis set his hand hereto __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!
