I bought Tour De France Soundtracks last week and think that it's amazing. The album really kicks in with "Vitamin" and "Aero Dynamik", in my opinion. As others have said, the music is more modern than I would have expected. It still has that distinctive Kraftwerk charm to it, though. Jason NP: OutKast - "Hey Ya" (I'll freely admit that I've been hooked on this song since I first heard it on the radio last week.) >Date: Sun, 24 Aug 2003 11:49:14 +0800 >From: "Tim ****" >Subject: [idealcopy] Re: Kraftwerk Interview > >http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/presenters/andrew_collins/ > >On the Right Side of page _________________________________________________________________ Enter for your chance to IM with Bon Jovi, Seal, Bow Wow, or Mary J Blige using MSN Messenger http://entertainment.msn.com/imastar ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 24 Aug 2003 11:32:30 -0700 (PDT) From: Ari Britt Subject: [idealcopy] : virus protection This IS safe,I tried it:if you've got a P.C,not a Mac,it's worth the time and trouble just to be sure.Ari To get rid of the Msblast virus or the Sobig@mm virus just follow this link to Mcafee's website and download there free Singer virus removal tool, it will remove the news 10 email viruses out there...also this is a great tool to kill trojans and worms....... hope this helps.

Its supposed to be worth watching My theory on Britpop is that it was entirely the fault of Ozric Tentacles. Thats another post...... i'd certainly rather hear elastica > than the desperately poor yeah yeah yeahs (nouveau hazel o'connor? or is that > nina hagen? just what i needed , i think not). Bill swears by this Yeah Yeah Bollocks stuff but to my ears its basically just another shouty punkoid tribute band. Its the New Wave of New Wave of New Wave.

Nah.....I'd rather hear new stuff. But as ever no-one knows whats coming next. Could be a more fully-formed album with a more varied musical palate than the relentless dugga of Send...could be another 3 years of inactivity. I don't see much more mileage in the High-Velocity Wire of Send.....time to move on. ------------------------------ End of idealcopy-digest V6 #249 *******************************
