    Folks who are feeling this Andrea Marquee album as deeply as I am owe
    it to themselves to check out the new Lucas Santtana disc-- totally
    on the same neo-tropicália/electronica tip, very Gil-esque, though
    the influences are myriad. Great, great record--

    Also just picked up the Blue Slates record, which is awesome on first
    listen. Very little of that diva/bad-lounge-singer spoiling 1/4-1/2
    the album that's plagued nearly-great releases from Hefner, Bent,
    Dusted, & Les Gammas recently (anyone w/me on this? easy on the
    vocals, downtempo dons-- esp. when they blow!), & more lively &
    creative than the mainly-instrumental Bonobo.

    Anyone heard Regular Fries?

    Also picked up the other full-length on 2 Banks of Four's label,
    Sirkus; soundtrack to a (non-imaginary?) film called _Soul Circuits_.
    Wow-- truly *the shit* for me of late. It's too all over the map for
    me to really try to pin it down this late in the evening, but if
    you've read this far you def. want to check it out--

    o/o--
