I am going to have to slightly disagree on this one. There is about 1 track per single that is quite good. The other tracks are fair. The overall sound of the singles is very much done in a world music style (hell, I could see some of it being released on Peter Gabriel's Real World label). The singles are definitely more straight forward (if not popish) than other BD releases (there are a couple of exceptions though). A definite try before you buy it release. The Jimmy Cauty remix on CD1 imho is a highlight. But then again I am a sucker for anything KLF related. As for not for threes being light years ahead...well that is a whole different can of worms... -daniel Head Monkey Mad Monkey Records

what I was trying to say was that Not For Threes is light years ahead of the new BD singles, I agree that NFT itself is not an exceptional album but is 100 times better than that BD shite. sge -----Original Message----- From: daniel <daniel@eliteware.com> To: sge <sge@breathemail.net> Cc: james r mcpherson <andregurov@juno.com>; IDM List <idm@hyperreal.org> Date: 10 May 1999 05:47 Subject: Re: (idm) Babble on ...
