Akira Toriyama died a week ago, but it's being widely reported today...

Hanging Gardens (1999) was my first, I think it struck me quite immediately. I've heard most of the records released since then, they're all very different from one another, and they're all so not crap.

Glad you folks like Boymerang, I can only owe my own discovery of him from having A LOT of time on my hands during the first 2020 lockdown when I dove deep into a bunch of 90's DnB/jungle/breakbeat stuff (among many other genres).
