Exception to your point about "Techno guys should probably never add their own vocals on their records" : the latest Two Lone Swordsmen, which I find exceedingly good - kind of a new take on the electroclash thingy, both referential and fresh sounding IMHO. Gwendal

The songs themselves are alright, if a little redundant considering his body of work. But then he went and put vocals on top of all of them, ah, his vocals make richie's vocals on closer seem deep. Techno guys should probably never add their own vocals on their records. Luke Slater another good cause in point. Maybe having a sample of somebody else saying something would be alright, I like and play alot of music with distorted and messed up vocals/call & response. But I sort of don't want to know techno guys take on poetry, love, or mysticism. Well I have to take that half way back, I can take Dj rush's meandering babble any day. Generally let the music speak for itself. tom
