I just picked this up yesterday and have to agree with your review. Gotta
love that Bossanova track! BBE seems to be doing all the right things
lately.. I haven't missed a release so far. I think this whole "Beat
Generation" series is going to give them much more recognition than any of
their comps in the past (as was evident by the amount of copies the local
HMV had for this release, about 40 or so, meanwhile in the past they'd only
stock one or two copies of each particular BBE release). I just hope they
keep the quality consistent and don't fall off.
On a side note, Just saw DJ Spinna last night and can't wait for his two
comps on BBE to drop (Funk Rock and Strange Games and Things 4). The man
never disappoints.
