...self-sabotage--how will the masses relate?). Just as untimid in her work, she had Depeche Mode, Lamb, the Orb, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Steve Reich come under remixing at her hands before she began work on Kiss My Arp, her full-length debut. A session vocalist and classically trained cellist, Parker's Kiss (much anticipated after her glowing addition to the 1998 DJ Kicks series) brings her talents together in a brilliant torch of perfectly programed darkside downtempo. Cold vocals in "The Unknown" smart initially but burn grooves in the head, like all the stunning tracks on the album. "Some...

...puts three couples on stage, accompanied by Schumann's Five Pieces in Folk Style, and shows them not getting along. Sometimes they grumble, sometimes they quarrel--and every once in a while they waltz, gently and sadly. Performed in New York City by a high-class cast, including Morris, cellist Yo-Yo Ma and Mikhail Baryshnikov, The Argument shows that the erstwhile bad boy of modern dance just keeps getting better...
