Ah.. should have known better than to question
a Wire magazine writer!   :  )   Thanks for the
clarification.

Any comments on any of the Childisc or
Lollop releases? I have yet to hear any myself.
Are any of them like Takemura's more recent
output on Thrill Jockey or Bubblecore or
are they more like the older trip-hop, acid-
jazz sound of Takemura's earlier releases?
I think some of the reviews i read mentioned
the latter style but i would be interested to
hear what others thought. I know that the
former Clear label band Reflection started
out on Lollop. If the other Lollop releases
are as good as the Reflection stuff on Clear
then Lollop releases would definitely be
worth seeking out.

btw: i dont have a legitimate database
(though i wish i did). just my email program,
my own music collection, and the www.
