Comment:

Heading into the home stretch- while this was supposed to be the year "Electronica" broke, there's not much of it on this volume- there's a more pervasive mood exhibited by artists as diverse as Missy Elliott, Radiohead, Bob Dylan and Built to Spill: moody, languid, atmospherics that could at turns be playful, foreboding, malevolent or mournful. Cornershop and Sleater-Kinney step up to ramp up the energy, and Lifter Puller joins the Lyres in the Obscure Ass-Whomp Rock Song canon, but on the whole this is pure midnight listening. Fill the room with smoke and slip on the headphones.

UPDATE 12-19-02: Damn, Busta-bus segues pretty nice into Stereolab.
