Hey Nick Mo Wax did this already. I think it was Mo Wax. PJ of s://kimo had it available recently. Only reason I didn't buy it was a) it was on CD and I fucking hate CDs and b) it was $26. NOW, what is her DJKicks like good/bad? Hopefully nothing like that Rocking Chair. big disappointment, but interesting nonetheless. gilly

The DJ kicks album is very good indeed. The CD is mixed, the LP has fewer tracks but is unmixed. Mainly old and new electro and electro-tinged techno (includes Gescom's 'Puzl' off the clear e.p.). Nothing like 'Rocking chair' at all. The exclusive track she has on it is more like 'Melodious Thunk' - moody electro. Anyone know if Rocking Chair is on the new album? I must admit I'm not all that keen on it. I think it's the out-of-tune singing. It might just be the fact that when you put the single on, you have to listen to 5 versions of it which all keep either most of the singing or strings or both - I do dislike that. Nick

Not really my cuppa chai : altogether too hip-hoppy by far (personal preference expressed here : save yer flames). In fact, her own track at the end (longest track of the 20-tune compilation - nothing wrong with giving yourself a bit of space and airtime :>) may just be my fave of the bunch ... a bit early to say though, I've just got it this afternoon. Hm, just had a look and her own track "Unconnected" is the same one that was on the Trance Europe Express (vol 5) double set. I was under the impression that the compiling artist put on an exclusive track for the !K7 series ? I *
