Although it is still the morning, I feel sure that my biggest laugh for today will be hearing the The Dylan Group's cover of Aphex Twin's "We Are the Music Makers." I believe the album (or song) is called "It's all about strings and wires." Possibly a real bass plays the same bass line, live drums are a bit more on the breakbeat side and vibes take over the melody. No Willie Wonka samples, and a noise similar to the downward-sliding whine of Aphex's 'xepha' provides an interesting feel. One line review: Tortoise faithfully covers the Aphex Twin.
