i think tech's definitely trying out different sounds...i think with everready, even though he said he wasn't going mainstream, he definitely lost his underground sound. now he's trying to go for a more southern sound, which i'm not really feeling. i've only heard the sampler, but i wasn't too impressed...if strange keeps "evolving", then i dont know how much longer i'll listen to them with tracks like "that box" off this release and "whip it" from kutt
