"13 new tracks plus 4 >>>bonus tracks, reminiscent of the Big Loada >>>sound." TBA Heard this at the weekend. Pretty tasy, very _Big Loada_ in style but a bit more abstract in places. Lots of acid burbles and breakbeat fuckery. I dig it cos _Big Loada_ is on of my fave Tom records. The Ko-Wreck is getting a release on Chocolate in the US and Warp are releasing it elsewhere. Its kind of stunted hip-hop with some (obviously) great scratching by Craze (Kraze?). Very good but highlight for me is the Plaid remix which they've been playing in all their recent live sets and its a corker of a track. Listened to a bit of the new Broadcast LP, not enough to do it justice really - still in that 60's retro pop fashion but the tracks sound way more polished and accessable than before. Could be big. Theres a new Two Lone Swordsman LP been cut but I didn't listen to that. Oops. All forthcoming on Warp. || [CiM] || xxx_@xxxxxxxxx.xxx || - ______________________________________________________ Get Your FREE FlashMail Address now at http://www.flashmail.com It's Free, Easy, & Fun !!!
