I've owned this since Phil put it out on cdr way back when, and now I've bought it again. Kone is some of the most interesting, fun, danceable, life affirming electronic music I've heard. i don't claim to be an expert on the genre, but Phil is one of the greats. Severely underappreciated, even by those who listen to Download/Plateau. Phil you will be missed now and forever. Thank you for all your glorious music. Rest in peace. Minimum Riffage
