Lucky Kitchen does some unusual and interesting things with their
packaging....the Suetsu & Underwood 2xcd was encased in a pajama and
sandpaper (luckily, with better results than one Durutti Column release on
vinyl SEVERAL years back) package. If I'm not mistaken, that one was
limited to 41 copies - which, I'm sure are all long gone. It was a series
od interestingly juxtaposed/recontextualized samples; I guess you might
slot it as experimental/vaguely ambient (?).
