hi

>> Any opinions on Si Begg's "Commuter World"??
>>Looks interesting . . .
>> intriguing track titles anyway 

I'm listening to it right now, and have been for the past few weeks.
The album is ahem "London Underground-related" in that you get loads of
samples of urban transport noise, and that's reflected in the track titles
too. Some of it might sound really familiar to (also temporary) Londoners.

Si Begg is a funky man. I absolutely love his Planet EP under the Cabbageboy
moniker.
Commuter world is in parts discontinuous (?), quirky, but you get the same
funky/kitsch synthlines heard elsewhere in his work and the pulse for some
good beats too. 
A good album, in my opinion.

>I own a few things he's done and if you've not listened to Bunkfunk 3000
LP, you

If anyone has any Buckfunk 3000 stuff he'd like to get rid of, please mail me.
