Quite a strange comp. Has Richard James contributing to the first track I've heard from him in two years that didn't have me reaching for my sickbucket, a really, um, pleasant BOC track, some good "bad craziness" from Broadcast, an obvious Autechre leftover, an awesomely bad string of lame-ass loungey triphop tracks in the middle (the Plone track is especially weak -- and these guys are a new signing?!?) a Mira Calix track with a _really_ dopey drum sound, decent but unremarkable dancefloor techno from Mark Bell & 2 Lone Swordsmen... -d.w. on now: Balil "Island" (thanks for the reminder, Chris)
