Anyhow, Not for Threes is defintely one of my favourites of last year. More tuneful than a sack of Val Doonican, groovier than Rolf Harris and Esquivel combined, warmer than honey on toast and a mug of tea. Best moments - (sorry I'm not up on tune names) The one with the ultra fuzzy fluffy drone out of which gradually emerges a tune. This one knots my stomach up, its so pretty. The carnival one with the doo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oh singing at the beginning and the best rolling piano line since the (plaid produced) Kushti single (finest drum&bass ever? perhaps) The ambient one towards the end of side 3 - dreamy dreamy. Not for threes is EZ listening of prime quality. Nothing harsh here, just sublime tunes, funky drums, and bibbly bobbly basslines. In a manner of speaking... >im sold....im ordering tommorrow...actually i listened to samples of it >from the warp site....great stuff from what i heard.... is the first plaid release comparable...worth purchasing...? ...can anyone give some quick opinions of the pulusha (g.c.) "isolation" album.... also does anyone have any info on the DR web site...ive been checkin it out periodically for ages now....still under deconstruction.....ok thats it thanks to any replies.... afo
