I personally think none of the Clones recs are very good, but they're free to try and get away with it if they want, and Hawtin and everyone else is free to try and stop them.
The records are proper lowest common denominator fare though, the only one i heard with was the amazing idea of putting a filter/envelope follower on Let Your Body Learn. Even that was pants, haha.
Also, What little money Hawtin's made from Orange/Spastik(If i was to make a wild guess i'd say still only 5 figures over the years) is probably already in the bank, in the current climate he's not likely to make much more from them. I reckon he was just pissed off at having his songs stolen and another name put on them. I would be too.
