to cap it all off for a while (I think): V/A: Tresor Compilation Vol.7 Tresor- Tresor.123 I picked this up on collector's compulsion yesterday (Hey! I have 2-6! Can't stop now, can I?). Once again, Tresor completely fails to disappoint me. Let's go through the checklist: /track that sounds like the CPU of a killer android at full tilt; check, Karl O'Connor's "Guiltless" /track that sounds like a SETI probe getting funky; check, Daniel Bell's "The Butterfly Effect" /track that sounds like a city of telepathic aliens with added rhythm track; check, Savvas Ysatis' "Alright (Surgeon's Keith 4 Nat remix)" /track that sounds like Maurizio; check, Maurizio's "M4" (imagine that) /track that sounds like damn good techno even if I don't have a snappy visual metaphor for it; check and check again and again, every other song on the compilation. Buy now. Those who can't dig it, I feel a problem. Mr. Scruff: Keep It Unreal Ninja Tune- Zen CD42 This record is so smart, it's dumb. Or maybe it's the other way around. All I know is that I can't review it because whenever I try to listen my brain becomes completely lost in an infinite realm of hip-shakin' butt-wigglin' sex-fixated reptile instincts and the only thing my frontal lobes can comprehend is their own inability to comprehend anything, even their own recursive incomprehensability. Mr. Scruff has taken the intelligent dance record to its point of terminal irony- your 'intelligence' is completely swallowed up in the 'dance' and consequently um- what? Huh? I'm sorry, my ass was moving. Plus it's got the all-time classic "Fish" which I'm convinced is the best thinly-veiled musical reference to oral sex with women ever. Listen to it and see if I'm wrong. That's it for today- see you in the world of tomorrow. Tom
