not sure about this, but the majority of the samples come from old american
records, so don't feel too left out. michael kandel (tranquility bass)
deserves a mention. how about tony d? (okay so he releases on manchester's
grand central but he's from new jersey innit?)... and then there's king
britt, thievery corp. hey wtf am i doing sticking up for american music
anyway? ;)
