[kid cue]

maybe this is about rave MCs in general. they're as central to this music as rewinds and dubplates are. i've found a lot of techno/house heads just can't get down with lyrics on a visceral level. when i hear Spaceape i don't think "verbal interloper!" i just think "oh an MC".

and, i don't see why Spaceape can't work for you on the same level as Karl. it's not like there's a sticker on the album saying you better understand these lyrics. it seems like you're expecting there to be meaning and getting mad that you're not finding any. it's atmosphere, it reminds some people of something, and it sounds good sonically.
