the new spinna album has some BB type stuff on it (as well as house)-

the track with heavy (who ive heard a lot of good things about) has some unintentionally (i hope) bad singing on it

this track is pretty good (from marc mac) - a-side is harder and funkier than what most people might expect from bb, b-side isnt as good

I'm just listening to the Bugz album for the first time in a while and it occurs to me that it deserved much more praise than it got on release. It's basically back-to-back good party tracks. I struggle to pick out stand-out tracks cos the whole things just so on point, but at a push I'd say Sounds Like, Move Aside, Consequences, Knocks Me Off My Feet, Once Twice and Don't Stop The Music are the best cuts on there.

That Phuturistic Dancin compilation looks interesting. At least there are a few Kaidi bits on there and that Seiji track 3dom's a bit of a tune too.

I picked up the 4hero Brazilica mix the other day, which amoungst the Bossa Nova and noodling jazz has a wicked Broken track remixed by Mark Pritchard. Looovely.

Hey tox, I feel exactly the same way, was just saying this to someone last night, it was one of my favorite records of the year, by a long way. Great songs, great production, great writing.

<b>"We're delighted see that this thread has proved so popular with Dissensus users and that so much has been contributed to it. However, this thread (and the other "Gossip and Lies" threads) are getting so long that they are pretty unmanageable, and they're beginning to suck a bit of the life out of the forum. Virtually all of the posts here would work better and get more attention if they were in proper, smaller threads. So we're going to close this thread and all the other "Gossip and Lies" threads (other than the cricket one, which is so different from all the others that it probably still has a place). We know some of you have really enjoyed this thread so we're giving you a week (seven days from now) to make your farewell posts, then we're going to close it. After that, we'd love it if you could contribute this energy to the broader forum."</b>
