(And I LOVE CV's latest! "Busca Invisibles"). Live in the dorms and have like a 'wicked stoopid' neighbor down with Slim Shady or whatever that is, and me trying to listen my good old Coldcut albums. I don't think I've listened to an album straight here. And screw the Oval and Pole, just gets all drowned out, becomes less interesting the more you add to it. > Speaking of "found sounds," but does anyone else find Squarepusher's > latest attempts to combine D'n'B and Gamelon sounds a bit like a > roomful of old electromechanical pinball machines? (This isn't > intended as a put-down, BTW.) Is that on the new EP? Are soundbites at warp-net? Did you get a white label or something? What's with this Autechre EP? It's got 11 tracks on it! That's an album to me. I read in Jockey Slut about Death in Vegas, so I think Irene was wondering what they are up to, check out that ish. Also read that Plaid are releasing some kind of mental multimedia thing real soon but haven't seen any stuff on Warp about it. Supposedly it's like millenium related stuff. Then lastly, ole Aphex, guess he's taking a three month break from all the Windowlicker commotion (was there really that much?). Plus the interesting comments of Chris Cunningham, on a fax to warp or something. All in this month's Jockey Slut. Tis only $6.75 to us chappies in the US, subscriptions available too, operators standing by. Rusty
