i agree.... i do wish there were more "my sound" style tracks (emotionally engaging)...but the album as a whole needs to be taken into account... the first few listens through were with excitement of the new album...the next 10 or so i kinda gave up on it...due to the almost boring feeling of it...but as with Plastikman's Consumed...it took quite a few listens to enjoy it to its fullest...and it takes more than throwing it on the decks and letting it play as background. -mikeD Rural.AmeriKa 217.353.5111
