   About COUGAR
Emergency rock/rescue culture.
New album 'Patriot' drops August '09 on Counter Records / Ninja Tune.

Press on 'Law' (2007)
--------------
'Law is a nearly flawless example of intelligent musical design.' - XLR8R

'Pure Pleasure.' - Timeout Chicago

'A bittersweet, innocent wash of trickling guitars that counter each other like diffident sea creatures in courtship...harnessing layers in icy, crystalline symmetry.' - Pitchfork

'Already one of the best albums of 2006.' - Sinead Gleeson

'Melodically lush, rhythmically compelling...gloriously precise and urgent.' - The Wire

"Breathtaking...Best of 2006 alert!' - Scissorkick.com

'Outstanding.' - new-noise.net

'Pushing the boundaries of the instrumental music medium...Law hasn't left my stereo for weeks.' - CDreviews.com

'What Bartok and Stravisnky might have done had they lived and composed in the computer age.' - Rocknworld.com

'This album has so much beauty that words escape me.' - Liability Webzine

'When Law came to its conclusion, I had a moment of traquility engulfing me, until I panicked, searching for the repeat setting.' - Outsideleft

I finally finished up a project I have been working on closely with my homie DJ Trippin' over the past few months. The idea was to take a handful of my freestyles, studio tracks, and b-sides I've recorded over the last year and combine them all to a 1 track mix. All mixing, scratching, and juggling was performed by DJ Trippin'. The effort is available for high quality download by clicking the cover below!
