Yep. From what I've heard they're good (never heard them live myself). The
'nothing sequenced' claim doesn't quite stack up on record though. The stuff
I heard sounds pretty sequenced to me. I could be wrong. In any case, it's a
bit of a moot point as the records of theirs I heard, I enjoyed.

Naturally, it's a taste thing. I appreciate 'body & soul' style NY house a
la Clausell, Krivit, Kervorkian and Osunlade in a different way to say, what
most of us call techno.
