It seems like every time I happen to hear NPR's All Things Considered do an 
album review, it's something eletronic.  Orbital, Underworld, and tonight it 
was Basement Jaxx.  I suppose it's all part of this musics' entrance into 
mainstream culture.  First the car commercials, now Basement Jaxx on NPR.  
What's next, I wonder?

The reviewer seemed to think favorably of "Remedy," though most of the 
review was him attempting to tell the listener exactly what kind of music it 
is.  Wha?  Joe Six Pack doesn't know the 909 thump?

amusing quote from the review: "Disco and it's younger offspring, house 
music, have been going through a resurrgence lately.  Though when you get 
down to it, it's all disco."

Yeah, well...
Lauren
