    Other DJ Kicks that're really hot:
    Kid Loco
    Stereo MC's

    I'd also check out the Grand Central _Central Heating_ comp, anything by
    Visit Venus, Kid Loco, Thievery Corp., Common Ground, Luke Vibert (_Big
    Soup_ or, under his Wagon Christ alias, _Throbbing Pouch_).

    Hit some of those comps then follow yr nose to the artists that most
    interest you. Happy hunting!
