Wendy Carlos Switched On (East Side Digital) Four CDs of digitally remastered classical Moog excursions by the sexually remastered electronic pioneer, Wendy Carlos (formerly Walter). 8 (AG) Boney M. 20th Century Hits (BMG) Hi-NRG remixes of hoary haute-Eurotrash. Also describes the girl of my dreams. 8 (CY) Todd Terry Contagious Killer Cuts (Contagious) A mix CD that actually sounds like the DJ who's said to have mixed it? Yup, this is mass-appeal boombastic big-room Terry all the way. 7.5 (MS) Ani DiFranco To the Teeth (Righteous Babe) Let's face it: now that she's married, how many boys or girls really give a crap? 7 (CY) Suzuki Kid Doom (Something Inviting) Japanese noisecore, doomcore, digital hardcore, scare-the-neighbours-core. Hyper-sonic electronic. Take with Aspirin. 7 (MS) Kevon Edmonds 24/7 (BMG) Can you hear a difference? I can't hear a difference. Might as well be Babyface Jr. 7 (GD) E-40 Charlie Hustle: Blueprint of a Self Made Millionaire (Jive/Sic-Wid-it) I've never understood a word E-40 said and I still don't. 6 (SC) Scotch Egg Tantalizing (New Life/Navarre) Moody wannabe-surreal Bukem-esque drum & bass for people who wear black capes. 6 (K) Crazy Town The Gift of Game (Columbia) I have an idea! Let's take that rap stuff and mix it with heavy rock! Really innovative guys... 5 (SC) Tonic Sugar (Universal) Oh shit. I thought this was an album by Sugar called Tonic. 5 (CY)
