I'd been pondering what we mean by "comfort zone" and I don't think listening to one genre is necessarily sticking in a comfort zone.

that's very kind of you djh.
my ile email is still valid if its a digital release ?

i should clarify - those albums i listed are new 2020 releases i have actually bought.
for some strange reason, i am still on a few record label digital mailing lists, so have heard quite a bit more, but to be honest, nothing has hit me as much as diving into the extensive On-U/Kompakt/CV/tBD back catalogues.
(during the summer i also hit my acid jazz/talkin' loud/mo'wax archives hard as well, but that stuff only works for me when the sun is out)

hence my answer to the thread is : yes, i am stuck in my comfort zone, and given the shitstorm of 2020, i have no problem with that, as it been a really enjoyable experience.

Oh, I could just post a link on ILXOR somewhere. I was thinking a CD-R because that's my comfort zone.

In fact, here you go:

May change between now and Xmas.

do you really notice that an overnight simmer has an effect on the chemical structure in a way that's discernible from, say, three hours — in a way that pork or beef would surely break down more ?

In general I prefer the original lineup but I'm willing to listen to certain side-projects
