I picked this up the other day and have to say its really really good. Very melodic, nice beats, great production... etc. etc. etc. I think its definantly one of the best things Rephlex has put out yet. Oh yeah, that house collection they reissued is purty good too.

Very impressive, whatever Grant may maintain it sounds alot like TAFKARDJ. just kidding. But listening to this it's obvious that roommate of his, had access to his gear, and maybe a little melodious influences. Beautiful melodies, all presented with some mid-tempo, groovy beats. This is a record I would use to introduce people to idm. Yep, there's singing, and the first track, St. Martin, is absolutely incomprehensible. But I was busy with dinner, so maybe another listen will clear things up. Lots of analogue warmth too. Genuinely a pleasurable album. >>
