To compare the EP with really bad cheesy UK house is overstating it's ordinariness, I agree.
And I agree with you about his DJing: he's taken a route I could never have imagined after listening to his DJ Kicks mix, which ranks as one of my favourites. I've only heard him play once, last year (1999), and he was a real letdown (lots of Basement Jaxx, Yoshitoshi type tracks, which I guess the new Black Flag fits in with). Did he ever play out the same sort of stuff that he plays on the DJ Kicks cd? Cheers sens --- Phonopsia <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I passed on the 12".
