heard one of their tracks on shadow's "theatre of sound" comp. very very
tortoise-y. first time i heard the track, i had to check the track list to
make sure it *wasn't* tortoise. good, but maybe too tortoise-y. kinda like
clifford gilberto (although i'm still not convinced that it's not sqpr).
i'd like to hear more than one track.

alan!

merrrrrrrrry christmas!
(they have that in other countries,
right? and yes, i know i'm ignoring
lots of other holidays. sorry.)
