I asked Chuck about this only a few months ago when the last PE album dropped and he did press here. He said he had only heard of UR, but he does have some contacts in the Detroit electronic underground. PE were meant to tour and I meant to hook him up with some music. Chuck is a lovely guy, very accessible. The RZA needs to hear it too! Sometimes I wish I could jack Bobbito's column in Vibe where he plays people things and lets them guess what it is, except I would play them really leftfield stuff. The page needs to be longer too, like 800 words, 2 pages. You would play RZA Strings Of Life, Prince Paul Carl Craig's stuff, The Neptunes/Timbaland some Detroit techno, etc. A lot of the hip-hop DJs are really curious about the Hypnotech stuff and the theory behind it.
