Re: (313) new dbx
The track "Squirrel Bait" is on the "Blip, Blurp, Bleep: The music of Daniel Bell" CD compilation released in September 2003 on Logistic. And its written 1999 as production date. And to me, its sounds like farmyard animals communicating by morse code :) If i have to choose, my favorite DBX' track would be "Phreak". I like the expanded clap and kick on it! I guess it would be perfect in a bangin Chicago mix :) Hmm actually its part of "Ghetto Trax" EP. - KiDD*e* - Original Message - From: "Grammenos, Peter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Mark S.

Squirrel Bait is hot! I dig all three tracks on it. Very quirky techno, but I also agree that it needs to be heard loudly. I often annoy my parents by shaking the basement with it.

RE: (313) new dbx

Very much so - I was going to post earlier, but I thought I'd give the tracks the benefit of the doubt since I'd only heard the RA samples; but since you ask, I thought the tracks were a huge disappointment. I doubt I'll be buying them, which is a bit of a shock to me. Sean.
