>i got bored of that one after 3 listens. (the alec empire remix, that
>is).  what's your favorite track on this disc?

My favorite track? I don't know, i've been trying to get a feel for
individual tracks but really can't, seeing as the number light on my CD
player is burnt out, so i just go along with it and have to judge it as one
piece.  I like the fact that "Schizophrenia" shows up (love that song and
album), but the mix of it isn't that great, the mix plays better in this
mess of thurston-related sound than alone.  Perhaps in a few months i'll
get a better feel for who's who (Like i've done on the Peter thomas remix CD).

(interesting side note: I just lent away about 1/6th (~125) of my Cd
collection to my gf's littlest (13 year old) sister. I so wanted to give
her "sister" but the lines "she's just a bitch" and "Do you want to fuck?"
put it out of the running. I can't wait to see what she thinks of Amber,
ICBYD, SAWII, lunatic harness, and Orbus Terrarum though. And two pages.
Wish i could remember what else i lent her.)

As for alec empire, i don't know why i bother with him.  I keep thinking of
the song "suicide" and hoping i'll hear something else on par with that.
I've never even come close. His remixes of bjork (all 8 or so) are just
annoying, though i guess i like his production for nicolette, which is
older and subtler.
