Oh yeah, this album is great... very much in the vein of this new(ish) subsound I'm calling "microhouse" - really dry, techy house (like Kompakt et al) but shot through with splinters of funk, flashes of soul... really good stuff, right in line with all the yummy new bizness on Perlon (esp. Markus Nicolai's 2xLP "Back"). Great record - now I've just gotta get it on vinyl... In a similar vein, I've been *loving* the Theorem vs. Stewart Walker - it's got a similar sense of stripped-down soul, and it's super sexy, thanks to that vocal snippet. Is the Theorem vs. Swayzak at all in the same vein? phil

Jabbing organs, atonality and sax don't seem to fit with the descriptions of 'I Don't Either' I've read so far. :) Michael np.
