perhaps not, but the uk squad on the list are generally the ones
irritated at the high prices here. the peacefrog prices were crazy
no matter what country you were in, but they was still defended.
in the US the mahogani costs about $1 more than other 12"s.
knowing how limited these things tend to be it seems silly to
worry about $1 now when its out as opposed to potentially much
money later on if i decide i want it.

the first mahogani was already going for mad loot. the andres one
is pretty impossible to find already, i wouldnt be suprised to see
that one going up like mad sometime soon.

well i cant disagree with you more on the AM. thats gotta be one
of the hottest house tracks of the past few years and certainly
one of alton miller's best efforts. the kai alce isnt the greatest
record ive ever heard, but i like it and it got people moving when
i played it out. i dont mind paying extra for stuff that i like,
and im a picky guy when it comes to house music. if anyone has my
confidence, its kdj. pretty much everything the guy chooses to put
out by other people is good.
