In my opinion it's all MUST HAVE..
but.. i'll try to sort it out for ya..
Caustic Window:
joyrex j4: not a must have (if you insist :D)
" j5: definite MUST HAVE, for Jedi at least..
" j9: if you like RDJ's noisy stuff, I mean NOISY, then this is a
must have
picdiskJ9: this has HMNA, an awesome acid track, if you're into that
sort of thing (I am)
Soit P.P.: This track IMO kicks major ass and is among RDJ's best tracks.
AFX:
analogue bubblebath 1: must have (it's widely available from tvt)
" " 2: another one of those, for the NOISE lovers thing
" " 3: pretty average, got one of RDJ's best tracks (IMO)
on it (track 8 on the cd), and the cd isn't rare
at all.
" " 4: MUST HAVE (for sloth, if not anything else)
" " 5: average.. but have fun trying to get one of the few
people who have this to sell theirs
Hangable Auto Bulb 1: pretty average, a bit better than average
" " " 2: must have..
Polygon Window:
Surfing on Sine Waves: Must have.. some awesome tracks here.. some are
detroit-influenced, and generally house influenced.
Quoth : pretty average, all except for bicycle pump meets
bucket which rules like mules :)
Q-Chastic: Q-Chastic: I've heard that the title track is the only this of
worth on here, I'd stay away from this if you aren't
a total AFX freak, coz anybody selling this will
probably try to rip off an arm and a leg from you.
