Comment:

I have been watching Cowboy Bebop. I love Yoko K., but the nature of her style is often to invoke others. This is also the nature of a temp track for movies or TV shows. I get to thinking: What if Yoko's soundtrack was a temp track, and I was the actual music supervisor for this show? Or-- not so fancifully-- what music reminds me of the Bebop? It manages to be a good mix, regardless of its theme, and it uses one of my favorite tricks: two versions of the same song.
