I agree that this one was a pleasent surprise. Mugg's tracks are
uncharacteristically spare, but effective, without the trademark
"twang" that used to appear on all soul assassin's produced work...

I _think_ this track originally came from the "TVO Soundtrack," of which
Krush was asked to remix. It was later released on 12" and these tracks
were the ones that fell into the hands of one James Lavelle. This one
has a very trodding, dubby feel to it, with clarinet laying down an emotional
"spontaneous" melody. I like the track, but it wouldn't be enough for me to
purchase "ROC4." The "TVO Remixes" do exist on CD and analog (strangley,
Krush's management has never heard of the CDs), and it appears that the analog
versions have been released in the UK, but I understand that they are nearly
impossible to find. Incidentally, in the next edition of "ele-bugi," we
will be posting this track (well, 30 sec. of it) as an AIFF file if you'd
like to sample it. If our writer ever commits the interview to paper...
