Affirmative. Not Orblivion's paranoia, not OT's psychelidub, not UFOrb's
ambient grooves. This is more a pop/reggae album...with that special Orb touch.

This and that long last track are both from the FFWD sessions; they were
previously "lost" but found during Alex's move to a new flat.

Not the same, different girl, whose name escapes me here at the office.

Definitely a grower...it won't stun anyone out of the gate. I rather disliked
it until about the third week (getting the Once More remixes by M Pritchard
helped, too :), at which time a lot of the complicated engineering began to
reveal itself. Alex has gotten less obvious (meaning more cunning) with his
engineering/mixing techniques.
