jez is definitely out & about, and jungle is the word on his lips. he's
friends w/my ex-boss mark farmer (45 vibe/hyperdisc), so i've had occasion
to
see him a few times around town. i heard a recent tune demo, and he's
definitely interested in the d&b action. the track i heard did a lot of
1/2x
2x stuff. apparently he's also been hanging w/matt cooper's partner andreas
(andersen?). i played the jungle remix of "moon after the fall" (which is
actually too "tech-y" for me) at the room (my monday in hollywood gig) and
he
immediately came up and talked to me about it.
i'm sure he'll be out w/something soon, maybe a 'sonics thing, maybe
something
else, but he sure isn't sitting on his ass farting around...
