is this the Armand Van Helden one? if so I agree I don't really like it
either but hey each to their own but I think Blackwater is soaring,
beautiful, and melancholy than that track and its techno :)

I soooo not agree. I think it's cheesy and cheap.... If Techno would
ever
evoke these feelings in me, I would not like it.

YOU DON'T KNOW MY NAME IS THE BEST SONG I'VE HEARD IN AGES!!!!!
My god what a heartbreaker! Techno has a hard time inspiring the
same
emotions, generally speaking of course...there's such _ambition_ in
a song
like 'You Don't Know My Name', it's soaring, beautiful, and
melancholy.

Well every time I mention a hip-hop/R&B CD here Carl Craig ends up
charting
it or playing it, so... ;) I think that 'chipmunk' thing came from
RZA
distorting samples, I like it, but there's none of that on West
productions
like You Don't Know My Name by A Keys (a Theo Parrish fave
incidentally) or
Encore by Jay-Z, etc. The album is superb.
