Yea, Det.Riot is a bit shorter, that's what I mainly like about it. Short, concise, tells the story - and good music

Not saying the other albums aren't total work of art, obviously


Agree 100% He's a class act all around and it shows in his musical expression. His material isnt there to make money, its a legit work of art.

I'd love to attend one of his skate-parties. Heard he holds one every two years or so.

I'd like to go too. I never had sex with a black woman but I'm pretty sure I could find me a nice one at one of his parties.

Your favourite albums of all time are deep house and one techno album?

Also, you going through a divorce or something? You keep talking about banging random girls.

It's a pretty good album, but I wouldn't think of saying that it's one of the best.

Efdemin's "Chicago" blows "Glass Eights" out of the water imo. But I guess I'm more into that kind of sound.

Yea I'll try to listen to this. I know a few other folks who were interested in it when it first came out.

Glass Eights' best tracks are the ones with the kick drums. D2 is my favorite, I think its called Glass Eights. The way the piano seems to merge with the rest of the sounds is so hypnotic

"Went" was my favourite. Was checking some older stuff on RA to see what these guys gave 5/5 to. I was surprised to see:

heh heh. I never found their reviews useful only because I suspect that there is politics involved in how they do things. They also seem to review a lot of releases that really arent significant in the overall scheme of things.

What's the best tracks off Chicago?
