I have found John Drukman's observation of MoM rewarding the close listener to be very accurate. I have listened to "Ioara Tahiti" about four times now, and swirling behind the beats and pulses, amorphous melodies drift along in the backround, sometimes almost hiding it seems. The first track, "Stereomission" revolves around a woman speaking Japanese(I think) continuously, and the final track is almost totally blank except for extremely faint ocean noises, and what sounds like a German radio broadcast. The other eleven tracks in between keep on getting better after every listen. Definately a worthy purchase. Greg Sullivan
