Interesting drum programming with less interesting bass lines. I like it a
lot because it is mostly free of melodies. The only jazzy/melodious track
is the second (name escapes me) with the flute playing along,
which is also on the Sub Rosa Underwood
compilation and which many people claim to be the best track of the
Oscillations cd, but for me it's the lamest because it runs through with
no real progression. The other five tracks are mainly drums & bass with
some dark ambient sounds and well-crafted (is that a word in English?)
rhythm programming.
