    Picked up Kid Koala: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, yesterday, and all I can say
    is, what the hell have I let myself in for? Not exactly the easiest
    listening record I've heard, but damn interesting to say the least.

    Its only in the last couple of months that I've begun to check out some of
    the contemporary electronic sounds on offer, so I'm trying out stuff you
    peeps recommend (Give yourselves a pat on the back). Up until this year Daft
    Punk: Homework, was the only CD of that nature in my collection. In the last
    couple of months I've sampled the delights that are Thievery Corporation's
    and Kruder and Dorfmeister's DJ-Kicks albums (can't say enough good things
    about both of those discs) Attica Blues: Test Don't Test (love its
    melodramatic somberness) United Future Organisation: 3rd Perspective, only
    shelled out for it yesterday along with KK, but It sounds pretty cool.
    Others that didn't quite do it for me MJ Cole: Sincere, all right, might
    grow on me. GP:WW, to many tracks on it that did nothing for me, so I
    exchanged it for K+D (damn good move). I've even bought a couple of Hip Hop
    CD's, (Tuned out with all the Gangster Rap Bitches and Guns muck) namely
    Black Eyed Peas: Behind the Front, which is pretty good, and, Quannum:
    Spectrum, masterpiece! Its up their with The Disposable Heroes of
    Hiphoprisy's: Hypocrisy is the Greatest Luxury as a work of genius, can't
    wait to hear Solesides Greatest Bumps.

    Well, I'll leave it at that but, I just want to say that I'm still waiting
    to hear the new Jazzanova remix CD (which you guys made sound quite tasty),
    which still hasn't been realised in Ireland yet, could be after Xmas!! Think
    its time to get me a credit card and have an internet based sounds blowout.

    Cheers for the recommends,

    Willy

    P.S. I think its Music for Morning People on KK's CTS with the lyrics:
    Wakey, Wakey, Eggs and Bacey, worth it for that alone;-)
