i need a Capybara with Kyma (or so it goes). otherwise, got this LP a few
weeks ago in the mail and thought it was ok but not worth hanging onto.
for all you rhetoric-impaired out there, this is the triple vinyl backlog 
of Bogdan Raczynski (aka super prolific Bogdan from NOiSE) work from about
96 or so i'm guessing since i'm hearing bits of SHAFJV.iT coming through on
the fifth or sixth side..

anyway, it's really cool to hear tracked stuff on the same level as the
rest of the slickly marketed Cubase shite; and it sounds as if Bogdan has
been reworking material through Buzz as well. personally though, i think
the biggest detraction is that Boku Mu Warakan suffers greatly from the 
pattern-sequence repetition. despite a flogging of Lalo Schifrin and
japanese Yojimbo type samples, overall you hear alot of familiar bass and
beats from serve yourself webpages. it's kinda like you grew up wearing 
plaid shirts for no good reason, and then everybody starts wearing more
expensive plaid shirts. last track on the LP is a pretty nice and moody
number, and here's hoping that this is a bit of a teaser for what's yet
to hit/come/impregnate with the 3rd full-length album..
