I think everything that RDJ has done has been pretty damn impressive... except for SAWII. I dunno... I'm willing to just say "it's just my genes, man"... but most of the tracks off SAWII sound, to me, like taking a single layer from Eno's "Another Green World" or "Music for Airports", isolating, and calling it a track. Not to say this is necessarily a bad idea, but for some reason, none of it really connects with me. On the other hand, the more ambient-ish/downbeat track "Pancake Lizard" (off "Donkey Rhubard") is an amazing, moving track -- as just one of many examples. YMMV, as always. ======================================================================= Brian MacDonald <brianm@kuci.org> ======================================================================= --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
