Sorry, but I have to jump on this "Hot Music" bandwagon. This track
definitely changed how I percieve dance/Jazz music today. At that time, I
was deep into the whole acid house scene, but when I found this 12" in the
markdowns at a local record store - there really was no turning back for me.
^^^^^^^^^
If any of ya'll are in the DC area, listen to the mix shows on the weekends
'cuz the DJs are still dropping this track. Still the *hit.
Concerning Pal's full length - I know I have it somewhere, but I don't
remember much about it other than the fact that it was kinda weak - house
wannabe jazz.
BTW, is there a rmx of "Hot Music" floating around that I don't know about?

peace,
gene
