Heard 'Cherry Coloured Funk (Seefeel Mix) and was impressed.
These might be my kind of thing - any idea on a good starting point for their music?

Re: Cocteau Twins?
They've been through different phases, with Liz singing in a made-up language in the first few records, then having proper English lyrics in the end. Robin Guthrie's tapes, pedals and overlays became more and more intricate. I would suggest the compilation "Stars & Topsoil" as a primer, only 6.49 at Amazon.
Four Calendar is one of my fave albums ever. Back then it was considered as a sign of their imminent demise, go figure.

Get Victorialand, Bought this when it came out in the early 90's and still sounds wonderful today. Garlands is edgy, Blue Bell Knoll probably their most well rounded.Originally posted by ShpiraSo came back last night...
Sven Vath was amazing...he played a god damn killer set...ended up going to that and came to at like 10 am in some whore house in south Amsterdam...no idea how I ended up there...friday was a bit of a blur got really drunk and visited several parties can't remember a whole lot to be honest hehe...saturday was probably the best day that I recall...started up in the nearest coffee shop and going from party to party...beautiful woman, beer and weed...finished the night by taking some shrooms and listening to an amazing elke kleijn set...sunday...i met a nice girl who worked at one of the coffee shops and ended up talking to her for like 6 hours...was supposed to meet her at some DnB party...but instead went for a steak and walked around red light district bars drinking and smoking...monday took it easy went to a coffee shop and took a taxi to airport....
All in all...I think I will be going back there some time soon
