Yes. This is a collab w/ Christoph Charles. Apparently he geave up his
sample bank to Popp, who in turn 'Ovalised' the sounds. Their other albums
are more clicky, w/ less recognisable sound sources.

Absolutely. Strange or Funny Ha Ha? has bewildered me. Absolutely killer. I
wish they wouldn't tag their stuff as Dn'B though, despite the fact that I
hear that they're working on decidedly Dn'B oriented sounds now. Sub Rosa
needs to do more vinyl in general. If I had 'Futurism and Dada reviewed' or
the Antonin Artaud CD on vinyl, I just might take up DJ'ing again...
