"Phat Lab Nightmare", if you believe interviews with Vibert, was
something of a pisstake. His story goes like this: the record
label said, "we like your stuff, do you have any ambient stuff" to
which he lied "sure!" He then put together an album's worth of
material in short order, and they released it as "Phat Lab
Nightmare."
I've not heard it, but that story kind of pushed it down past the
cutoff in my "must buy" list.
"Redone" is remixes of Throbbing Pouch cuts, including an Aphex
Twin mix.
My "must buy" list runs more to his recent 12" material. The 'Plug'
series are a wonderful take on jungle, and the Mo'Wax release under
his own name is very tastey.
As a sample cutup artist I don't think there's anyone right now
who can touch him -- as much as I like Depth Charge and the Chemical
Brothers, they don't have a patch on his blunted artistry.
