Just had to pop in a quick review of this 12" - out on Inflammable records,
don't know how long it's been around.

For those of you who have the Inflammable release "Underground Live Act" or
quite possibly Instinct's "Mad Blunted Jazz" releases, you will remember the
track Meera, it's the one with the incredible Indian woman singing (or at
least someone who sounds like an indian woman singing). Well now it's been
sliced and diced by today's modern music masters using their samplers and
imagination as their Ginzu knives. Remixes by Tek 9 (ok, a little
repetitive), a french artist I don't know (super hip hop fat beat dope),
Nobukazu Takemura (a little more minimalist dope), and ? The Dark Angel ?
(heavy jungle dope). I'm a big fan of Cam, an even bigger fan of this song,
and a fan of some of the remixers, so it was a must-buy, but anyone with a
penchant for fat beats and great female vocals had better run out right now
and snag a copy before they melt as a result of their inner heat.

Has the new album "substances" been released yet? Does it contain much of the
material on Underground Live Act? I remember "Meera" from Underground Live
Act, but the 12" says it's from "substances" (I'd like to know which kind and
get my hands on some :)
