What you're looking for is a project featuring one of the guys from Kruder & Dorfmeister along with another pal of thier's. It's some great, lazy, downtempo trip-hop type stuff, originally released last year on K&D's G-Stoned label, but just reissued (or about to be very soon) on the American wing of Studio K7. If you like it, I also highly recommend Fuck Dub, a disc which collects a bunch of Tosca remixes from a bunch of folks that were originally released on a series of 12"s. Also on G-Stoned. Greg
