       just wanted to thank whoever mentioned bonobo's
    "animal magic" a while back. finally picked that up
    (thank's groovedis). this makes my top albums of the
    year. it's just engrossing, it's lush, it's ...
    whatever. from some of the indian influences to the
    great spacing and timing. if you don't have it, buy
    it.

    speaking of bill laswell, i downloaded "black lotus"
    the other night. it's this great 10 minute workout
    through the indian landscape he seems to love so much.
    nitin sawhney-like, although it might have been before
    it. what's this track from? is the whole album like
    that?

    the more i listen to badu, the more i like this album.
    it just seems more layered, organic and original than
    her first. maybe more confident. i think the
    soulquarians sound is starting to meld with this work
    and d'angelo's, although i wonder if it pushes a bit
    too hard. just a thought.

    alright, i'm done...
