Yeah I was really dissapointed with that one. In fact so 
dissappointed that I've already managed to lose the CD. 
I guess subconsciously I let it fall in the trash or something. 
There are a couple good tunes on it, but dammit isn't this 
the guy that wrote "Psychosis" ??? (which is still one 
of my fav dnb tunes ever........) Nothing on this album 
even comes anywhere near that tune.

Oh well. At least the tech itch LP was good. No surprises, 
just good nasty techstep stuff. Except for that stupid 
acid-breakbeat track that sounded like it could have been 
done entirely on an Amiga tracker.
