Sorry, I just have to say this:

I am consistently amazed by Dot records.  I went from being moderately
intrigued by the Knights Who Say Dot compilation, to purchasing every Dot
release I can find.

hab - mapod went immediately into my top 5 releases of the year.  the
tupilaq - volver ep is crunchy, dark, and funky.  the friend full length,
while being more dn'b than I am usually into, is a great listen.  quant's
breaking and entering ep is just heavenly, the hab remix being one of the
best tracks I've heard by him.  endlessnessism is a great implementation of
a great concept.

The latest addition to my collection is Single of the Week, a collab
between Friend and Dr. Kosmos.  It was released a while back.  It is a
super-groovy, tongue in cheek combo of nu-school electro, disco, and
downtempo.  the 3 remixes, by metamatics, clatterbox, and daniel ibbotson
are also fantastic.

I haven't heard the Roupe, Argonort, or other Quant ep's, but want to.

        zoinks, what a great label!
