oh yes....but if you can track down the Transmat 12....
do it...

i think vertigo is just a bit better than my medusa, and 'all for
lee sah' is damn good as well...
specially that funny noise that crops up every 32 bars or so...

im getting really bored of all this remix thing...
every week seems to bring another...'ooh look who we got to remix
this'
wu-tang doing texas.
boringstorung doing wu-tang..
x doing y
etc
etc
etc

and most of the time if the track is good, it bears absolutely no
relation to the original...

so whats the point?

record companies trying to go for the crossover appeal...its not
enough to have the public at large choking on satans rotting cock of
pop...you gotta get all the *underground* music fans to cough up as
well...

thanks.

(this is not a personal thing to the sender btw....jus my own bit of
vitriol for the week).
