    Jason et al -

    PUTS also have tracks on a couple upcoming comps. that are dope - "2001: A
    Rhyme Odyssey" (Guidance) and "Deep Concentration 3" (Om)

    > Also while I'm at it - Mike Ladd - what's the score ?

    Ladd's got two albums on deck - one on NYC-based Ozone titled "Welcome to
    the Afterfuture" under his own name, out any day now - and a second one
    coming out in a couple months(?) on Big Dada, Ninja's sublabel that covers
    hop that's more hip than trip. The LP on Big Dada is s'posed to be under
    his Infesticons alter-ego. "Welcome to the Afterfuture" is pretty wicked if
    you're into leftfield hip-hop a la Co Flow/Anti-Pop/Sonic Sum etc, breaks
    down into what could only be approximated as free jazz rambling at points
    and is all over the map stylistically. Haven't given the Infesticons a
    proper listen yet, but once I do I'll try to nail that one down for you. As
    always, full disclosure - all stuff I'm working press on so I'm slanted :/
    Hope that helps...B
