There are four Child's View albums, all of which are excellent excursions in jazzy down- tempo electronica. The self-titled first album came out back in '94 on the Bellissima label. Then there was a remix release of the first album that featured such mixers as Mad Professor, Roni Size, Coldcut, Luke Vibert, and Aphex Twin to name a few. I believe that one came out on the Tokuma label. The third Child's View album was a japanese-only release in mid '98 called Child and Magic. But earlier this month the US Bubblecore released the newest and best Child's View album called Funfair. This one has a nice experimental/triphop/postrock edge to it. I highly recommend picking this one up. -->-Lance--- p.o. box 450715 westlake, ohio 44145 united states
