then he decided there's more money in making vinyl figures of Money Mark and cobbling out slightly above average hipster-nowave mixes under the name Unkle... has he forgotten Berry Meditation? I love that record and he's doing his level best to cheapn it for me as hard as he can. ... I'm waiting for the same to happen with Death From Above records.
Thanks for listening.

The difference between James Murphy and James Lavell is that Lavbell*'s a self-important coke'd up arse who probably still thinks that Fabric is the cutting edge of cool and has an ego the size of a small European state and who probably wouldn't have got himself anywhere without DJ Shadow, while Murphy, frankly, has the funk.
