>> Tosca "Fuck Dub" 'single' is actually longer than most full-length

Don't know what this is but I have the Fuck Dub remixes vol 2. It has
three tracks...

A1 Fuck Dub (Fauna Flash Remix) - Good jungly reworking that remains
dancefloor friendly without being super-dark.

B1 Fuck Dub (Haaksman Mix) - My fave on here. Trip-hoppy, but very nice.
Slow, nice break with snippets of organ, wibbly noises and deep bass.
Kind of Mo'Wax style like on the Headz compilation but without the
scratching and total hip-hop obsession.

B2 Fuck Dub (Fuck Electro Beanfield Mix) - Weird slow synthy vocal
excursion. Vocals remind me of Robert Wyatt on Ultramarine's 'United
Kingdoms' LP. My white label copy doesn't credit the remix to anyone
though... 

All the mixes are good. Anyway, Tosca is one half of Kruder and
Dorfmeister (Dorfmeister I
think) and someone else, all from Viena. They have an LP out called
'Opera', but I don't have this either. All release are on G-Stone, their
own label. Remixes vol 2 is G-Stone 006.

I imagine their original tracks sound closest to the Haaksman mix, kind
of slow sleepy dub influnced trip-hop. Or maybe the Beanfield mix is one
of their own. 

That's all for now,

Graham.
