Can anyone tell me more about darkhorse and their <his? > her?> label? Well, I dunno a lot about the background of the label, but someone else has already posted a bit about that. I just wanted to follow-up with a "me too!" sorta thing and say that you're right, the record is mighty fine. I also recommend a previous 12" EP on 360 (also dist. by Silent/PulseSoniq) by Mammal which is on a similar tip, and CD on 360 by Tim "Love" Lee called "Confessions of a Selector" that retains the trip-hop flava, but adds a nice'n'sleazy 70's veneer to the whole thing. Worth it just for the last third of the disc, a "suite" of tracks that feature samples from this really fucked up Christian-sounding child discipline record. Spank-o-rama! Greg
