I'll chime in and say the high points are high enough that it's a
very good album, and that, generally, he adds enough unexpected
touches that he gets good use from a lot of familiar synth and sample
sounds that would sound a pretty stale in some other context. the way
he links funk, house and techno is pretty interesting, the guy's got
a compelling musical vision.
but I wouldn't blame anyone for being underwhelmed by some of the
more atmospheric tracks -- not his strongest suit, some of them
really drag after awhile.
anyway, I still think a bunch of the tracks are up there with his
best work, and hope he cooks up another volume.
