the new schematic is GREAT!!
the new choc industries?  well, the PBO is better than the skam one, but
didnt really leave me wanting to listen to it again...  but the Guineo I
think is GROOVY GOOD!!

> and the new plaid and autechre are weak as hell right? 

i didnt like the new plaid much, though i listened to it for all of 5
minutes ina  record store -- so it could be solid as hell.  

the new autechre?  its sick.  everytime i listen i get something new from
it.. kinda how i feel when i listen to some of my fave coil.  but im an
obsessive fan and like noisey stuff.. what do i know about idm?  its all
wank off noodling anyway.  most of the list would hate it.  YAY AMBER.  or
something.

> are just a bunch of biters right? skam has gone down hill?

well, funkstorung at least has fun remixes :)
skam, down hill?  oh, well, i thought the bola was boring as hell and i
ddint like the PBO.. but if folks think its gone "down hill" based on a
few recent releases, that seems odd..
