I have no comment on Orbital's live show, but i'm wondering what all the
slagging of "Middle of Nowhere" was about.  Sure, it doesn't have "The Box"
or "P.E.T.R.O.L." but the album is better than the rest of the tracks on In
Sides, and really beats Snivilisation.  Of course, i don't have thier
earlier albums, so maybe that's why i miss the problems.

I absolutely love "Oton~o."  I put it on repeat for an hour and still want
more.

P.S. the reason why i said " And what i've heard of Clifford Gilberto
sounds a lot like some stuff i've  heard by squarepusher. But then, so does
a lot of the Amon Tobin and Funki Porcini, as far as i  can tell." was to
soften my opinion.  I didn't say that they necessarily were, just that to
my ears that have heard only parts of each, they're in a similar vein.
Geez.
