What I was trying to say was that although I don't really like hiphop that much, the 3MB comp gives me the chance of listening to good hiphop without the tracks being long enough to remind me of not really liking it - if that makes sense... (the limitations of my English showing here perhaps). Having said all that I do have a few more hiphop CDs around somewhere so you could say it whetted my appetite for more... Think of Manuel Göttsching's masterpiece "E2-E4". 60 minutes full of absolutely shivers down my spine. And it really changes very very slowly without being boring! Absolutely. Rather similar to classical music then perhaps, if I go by what I said earlier... ? Hmmm... I better get back into hiding now... ; ) Anya, "Day by day" is absolutely great! A very unique overview on Delsin's releases. It shows again how much good stuff is coming out on this label! Definitely a must! Thanks - I also checked the samples on http://www.delsin.org (*doh*) and it's on order now, should get it on Tuesday.

Of course you could also theorise that ppl's attention spans are a lot shorter nowadays than they used to be... ; ) Toodles, Anya Btw., anyone heard the new Delsin compilation "Day by Day" yet? If it's as lovely as "..going thru life" (Tristan, remind me next week!) then it's a must, right? : )
