ain't nobody...

in toronto last week, i popped into sonic boom on bloor st., specifically looking for the album one step ahead of the spider by mc 900 ft. jesus. a few years back, i picked up a copy there - long since lost - and they had about 5 of 'em, so i thought they still might have it. no dice. (christopher, i want my CD back!) i rolled downstairs to check out the vinyl, and came across a record by nobody. "oh yeah," i thought to myself, "i wonder what else they might have of his...," as he's one of my favorite producers of all time. the man makes the music i hear in my head. and everything else...? i've been looking for this one for a while. check. revisions revisited? check. and what's this...? tree colored see? i've never even heard of this one... check. picked up all three. and now my collection is complete. if you haven't heard this cat, it would mean a lot to me if you'd check out some of his music. i'm going to throw a few links below to download some stuff, but, seriously, if you like it, please buy one of 'em. i have bought ALL of these. every single one. and i will buy more. his next project is called blank blue, and i will buy that when it comes out. i hope i get to do some work with this cat one day...
