Hi, anybody know who is behind these releases? I've got no.2 and it's got a nice deep driving feel to it, though if I'm not mistaken, there's a wholesale Aril Brikha sample on one of the tracks. I want to get no.1 too which sounded really good, and no.3 has just come out also (apparently

This reminds me, there's a track I've been looking to ID now for at least 5 years. I heard it on a mixtape by John Kennedy, and he mixes out of a Kenny Larkin track from the Metaphor album and into this lovely mellow techy tune that uses the same tones as those famous notes from Close

Anyone know who is behind the (very faithful sounding) house remix of Talking Heads Once in a lifetime? From what I heard of it, it's so similar to the original, but just sped up with a more pronounced bass drum. While I'm here - what about the Convextion album we were promised?!! cheers.

One major biological reason seems to be that women simply aren't as obsessive as men (sure, there are exceptions as with all things). Obsessiveness (hmm, my spell checker doesn't recognise this word!!) is a key factor in the time it takes to learn to DJ, learn to write tracks etc. This is
