disappearing in a pile o' tissue, clunking thru digests of end o' year,
poll categories, track names, next year wishes etc.. and tho' i hate to
clutter here's some of my own. no sensible order due to hallucinatory
decongestent haze.

sounds that would not be shifted:
various/avantgardism II/law+auder (no it doesn't suck, imo > ag1 - thanx
everyone who responded)
various/death of cool pt 1/noodles (contains what sounds like patsy cline
recorded at peak performance black ark!! cloth eared types who can't tell
the difference btw sherwood and laswell shouldn't bother)
squarepusher/hard normal daddy/warp
various/spunk jazz/ill
amon tobin/bricolage/ninja
animals on wheels/designs+mistakes/ninja
mouse on mars/instrumentals/sonig
spymania allstars/avit/spymania

thanx to everyone on the list that ranted senselessly and enthusiastic
about all kinds of sound, and then helped me get to some of those sounds.
