Went shopping today - quick takes on the take: Funki Porcini - CarWreck EP (1996, yeah, I know I'm a bit slow on these things, but this is the first time I've seen it for less than $10, and dammit, I just didn't want to pay $12 for 4 songs) - notable for the Wagon Christ & Squarepusher remixes, both of which are tops, and must haves for fans. As for the Funki Porcini tracks, Carwreck (Original Mix), and The Fly are pretty weak (take this from an avowed FP fan). The Original Mix is to my ears just like the album version, and The Fly sounds like an early (and mediocre) version of another FP track, which I haven't figured out yet. Be warned. Roni Size - Brown Paper Bag - I bought this for the Photek remix, but it's not that great. I wouldn't bother tracking it down unless you're a serious trainspotter. The Nobukazu Takemura mix is pretty cool. As for the Roni Size mixes - I could care less, though I'll admit, the guitar/bass intro disgusts me. Che
