totally seperated  from the genre what you're talking about but... this seemed the only 'appropriate topic' to put it in. Just got it yesterday - very very...blah blah blah<br><br>Richie Hawtin - DE9: Closer to the Edit<br><br>Sampled over 150 tracks, * it up (so to speak) from one note to four bars (loops etc) and incoporating them into 'the mix'.

Kurupt = crap<br>Charlatans new one = CLASS<br><br>Also, the new Aphex Twin album is absolutely mental. I got it a while ago, but I need to listen to it again (he's on the cover of this weeks NME.<br><br>Lastly, you may or may not be aware of something called 'The Tip Sheet' - Moyles has mentioned it a few times (ie. slagged it off) and I learnt about it in my Media Studies class. It's a music weekly for the record industry, with details of new artists/songs that are going to be big in the next few months. It is edited by Jonathon King and costs £5 a week if you want to subscribe (cos of the cd) but it's available on http://www.tipsheet.co.uk/ which is nice. Quite interesting to see what the industry reads, and to see how much of it they completely nick from it. Richard Murdoch also features in each issue.
