Back in April Sweetbeats released all 4 of Amon Tobin's remarkable
albums including this year's latest "Supermodified".. still chewing
on that one, smiling all the way. This one comes into the loop a
little late, call it an encore.

Who is this madmon Tobin? What does he want with our brains? Does he
think he can bounce around the world like a samblist kanga-roo and then
come back and and infect us with his cross-culture craze...
Amon Tobin has already staked out Latin / Jungle fusion as his fertile
musicultural pasture land, crossing Samba spirit, vibe and breaks with
drum & bass sensibilities on a heavy bass floodplain. That was Mission
and CHOMP SAMBA.....rrriibaaaaaaaaa!
Fast Eddie Palmeira is drilling out a supersonic speed groove on the
congas like a tidal wave from the coast, boiling tumultuously on the
heavy bass floodplain and Amon is swept aside as a wall of frothing
samba beats rush through the Piranha Breaks rapids. ..in hot pursuit
of the sub tropic (sic!)...etc...etc...
Amon has tested these tunes on dub plate in clubs all over Europe -
they rock'n'erode.
