i think the new method man album came up on the list this week...i was just
thinking that i'd really like to hear an instrumental version of his new
single, which has a little 'ghostly' synth progression deep in the mix that i
SWEAR i've heard before somewhere in my techno stuff. 

timbaland is definitely linked in here somehwhere. his beats are pretty ill,
and have a great subtle dnb feel to them, though he denies being influenced by
it. 

man, i would kill to hear busta rhymes and luke vibert work together.
<<shiver>>  who'd be your combo?
