Sorry to draw attention away from the Goa is it intelligent theme, but yesterday I walked into my local record shop and found a new St.Germain single. Well actually I think that it's new inrespect of it re-releasing tracks. Well, having Heard that Ludovic Navarre (Modus Vivendi-Deepside etc..) was St.Germain, I felt elated at finding this 6 tracker (on the CD, haven't seen the vinyl yet) for a rather cheap price. i had heard, however, that the St.Germain project was alot more Housey, so I felt inclined to take this CD to the counter, and asked for it too be played. The first track came on, and i was lost, this surely wasn't the man who was a great French Techno artist. It had bluesy lines, which i really didn't like. Well it was only the first track. On to the second track....More bluesy stuff, not really house, kind of like the first track. O.K. well maybe the next would be the return to force...Nope. So I didn't buy it. It wasn't Alabama Blues, incase that was what you were thinking. I was mortally dissapointed. I've got nothing against blues, I quite like it, but this just wasn't very good. Then I found a cheap copy of Limelight on FAX, (CD). Dj Brainwave and Pete Namlook make up limelight. I returned to the counter, asking to play it. The man behind the counter searched under like every concievable section but couldn't find the CD, so I had to go home dissapointed. Better Luck Today, I hope.. NICK. P.S. the new Ken iishi album jellytones came out in the U.K. on Monday.
