I don't think anybody would argue that it isn't music. My opinion is that it
isn't as melodic as their past releases (or even LP5), and thus, isn't as easy
to put into the background while at work (which is where I spend the vast
majority of my time these days).

Certainly, though, when I'm up for a challenge, Chiastic and Cichlisuite are
it.


On a side note... Tommy Boy are setting up to release yet _another_ 4CD set,
called Tommy Boy's Greatest Beats, which is essentially a compilation of all
their past glory, including a track by Coldcut! (same guys that are on Ninja?)

There's also a remix CD for this, which includes a Grooverider remix of Pac
Jam. Real Audio clips of all remixes and clips of each track in the compilation
are also on the site. Check it out. . .
