Well I don't have a lot of their stuff but the vocal sample off "Papua New Guinea" is from Dead Can Dance "Dawn of the Iconoclast". In fact, the track as a whole relies heavily on this. The industrial-crunch sample off "Central Industrial" is off Throbbing Gristle's "What A Day", also appearing on the second "CD1" piece. Also, don't you think "Stolen Documents" sounds like an early 808 State outtake? ------------------------------------------------|------------------------------ "categories strain, crack, and sometimes break | Harvey D.
