Great mix, but that stupid 12 min. track of nothing but some fucked up girl going on and on is annoying as hell and totally ruins the vibe Villalobos sets.

+1 on Burial- Untrue
2 Scorn- Stealth
3 Echo Space- The Coldest Season

The voice on "Andruic & Japan" is Villalobos' own - high pitched........and yeah, it's hard to stand on the whole lenght. But the Koto drummers.........i like it, but it's not the strongest track on the cd. "Fumiyandric 2" & " Perc And Drums" are great, forward thinking techno tracks.

Thanks to my space I am able to dig for the modestm quiet, difficult stuff. So many good suggestions came also from this forum.

Oh man, i haven't got it yet. He's amazing. I wasn't super impressed by cuckoo though. I really loved shleep, and of course all of the older stuff, esp. rocky bottom. I think he might be my favorite song writer ever,
