  1. masters at work did so much productions and 12" on so mpuch labels that i don't wanna do their discography.
  2. grab your phone and try to call the guys at Talkin'Loud, uk. why do you think that this project of a following to Nuyorican soul (vol.1) take so long? just one reason : media acclaimed, but not that much by the public (read: the consumers). Even if you see their 1st lp in any record store (which is quite cool, by the way, cause i think there was many good stuff in it), it doesn't means all the tiny specialized dj record stores are selling less ; in fact, i'm not sure the money it took to take all these people on the Nuyo 1st lp was recovered. ok, it was, just kidding, but the fact is that the masters are more popular than anubody else in what they do, for one reason : they're here for a while, and they do stuff and stuff...
  3. i think that the Masters at Work name sells better than the NuyoSoul name. i'll see a guy from Yellow prod soon, i'll ask him if it was their idea first to put this on the cover or if it was an east-west (their major distribution) idea, and what he thinks of it.
'keep you crazy guys of the list informed f you wanna to!
peace, take care, and have a nice weekend.
