RE: (idm) Whither Plaid's _Mbuki Mvuki_?

as far as i know there are cd-r copies on the idm trade market, so yes
it's still in circulation.

as for the musical content, it's quite good. the tracks are rougher than
the gpr/warp stuff. a friend of mine best described it as a demo for the
"bytes" tracks, which makes perfect sense since there is less fx and the
beats are a little messier. in fact, some of the samples that were
eventually used on "object orient" (from bytes) show up here and there. 

as someone pointed out, two tracks from the clear ep are from mbuki
mvuki. so you can track that excellent record down (not as hard to find
as some other clear records, since it was repressed 1-2 times) and
decide if you want to hunt for m.m.

now does anyone know of any north american online shops carrying the
kushit album?...

...has anyone ever seen this floating around as either MP3s, on a CDR,
or both?  I'm not asking to leech; I'm actually just curious at this
point as to whether or not it's circulating at all, anywhere, in some
form.  The only oldschool Plaid I've ever heard were the tracks on
_Bytes_, which I liked, but I've no idea if that bears any resemblance
to _Mbuki Mvuki_...hell, I've never even managed to find a scan of the
cover art.  Also, if anyone happens to know anything about that _Booc_
EP that was supposed to come out...  :P
