Urgent update

Folks should head right across to Moistworks (link at right) and download "Who's That Knocking", a new song by Pajo (him of Tortoise "fame") which is, quite simply, incredible. What's with the rhythmic structure of this thing? The drums are strictly four on the floor (or three in some places) while the rest of it gets a little funky so that the whole thing is just slightly disconcertingly out of whack. But it's a thing of beauty, and probably the first song I've heard to make me take a sudden step backwards, "woah" style, since I first laid ears on the Junior Boys. You download 100 songs and hear something like this, it's worth it.
