Like John, i was a big fan of the first Deutscher Funk
compilation but i was also quite disappointed with
this one. The tracks by Lithops, Sack & Blumm, Flanger
(which is on the Templates album), and Hematic Sunsets
were the better ones but as a whole Deutscher Funk II
pales in comparison to Deutscher Funk I - even after
repeat listenings.

The David Toop - Museum of Fruit cd also on
Caipirinha didnt do much for me either.
