This post was send private, but since a few people had asked about
'spider-net' I thought I'd post the reply to the list.

Funny you should ask...

I picked nico up at the airport tonight and we were chilling and gabbing
about records and I asked him.

He said it was himself and his friend, paul (I believe), who he started
Saigon together with.

I told him I really liked it a lot and he was 'yah, really?'.

'Hell yes' was my answer and he said, 'maybe we'll do another one soon'.

On the Saigon front, there are great things happening.

They've just finished putting together the Saigon LP and the line-up is
amazing.  I haven't heard it yet, but I'm going to listen to the dats
tomorrow.  The weird thing is it's mostly a bit harder then the majority
of the saigon releases so far.  I asked about this and nico's reply was
that the main reason for Saigon was to break new artists in the jungle
scene and to give established artists a outlet for different styles then
what they might normally put out.

Sounds good to me.

I'll try to post a track listing tomorrow.

peace,
