Any ideas was a return to form. The second track (2nd minimoonstar) was beautiful, especially the second half.

Is Villalobos a DiS friendly musician?

Alcachofa is one of the seminal works of electronic music, and definatly the highlight of the minimal scene. As well as Fizheur, Vasco, his remix of Shackleton and plenty of other stuff, Villalobos is a crazed madman who twiddles with noises and makes lovely organic shit, not to mention his legendary dj sets.

Do you guys like the big V? Ever seen him live? Has it lost it recently? Or has the fickle world of musical trends just past him like a river while he still stands like a stoic hero enshrouded by minimal bloops
