Just wanted to share a great flashback experience I've had today. Made a compilation tape for a friend consisting of some of the old Plug 1 & 2, Photek (K.J.Z. is one astounding track!), and some o the ol' Pusha... loadsa quality intelli. Anyways, the stellar track I think is a new one by Single Cell Orchestra, called Blockhead. Amazingly enough, I found both part 1 and 2 of the 12"s at Tower for like $6 a piece. Best $12 I've spent in the past couple of months. The gist of the track Blockhead is in the drum'n'bass vein, but done with a good brush of style. Lots of good tingy electronics going on. No venturing off into the graves of old school jazz and funk, just a slight variation of beat with lots to listen to. Goes very well with the other stuff on this tape, kind of in a contrasting way. Anyways, just thought I'd push and plug the massif to the tunez of SCO. Another great release. (The other three tracks are awesome as well...)

yep, this is great. miguel is finally releasing some of the kick ass dance stuff he has done. i heard "blockhead" a year ago i think.

hmm, blockhead is more kinda breakbeaty dance with lots of weird noises (most of which are miguel sampling his own vocal sounds). the b-side was jungle tho. he's also doing jungle as "DJ Hz". don't know when any of that is coming out. -- Jon Drukman jsd@gamespot.com SpotMedia Communications ...I was an infinitely hot and dense dot...
