Delicious and Then Some

Well, it turns out that January 17 was some sort of international release date or something for New York Noise 2, so stores in London or maybe New York probably have it but Sonic Boom does not, in much the same way they do not have the DJ Koze record. That's okay, because instead I got Hrvatski's Swarm & Dither and Radian's Juxtaposition, both used, on top of Anniemal which Charles donated last night.
