Absolutely. Hong Kong is i think monolakes definative
work.In terms of lush evocative soundscapes it is not
equalled anywhere in their back catalogue. Cyan is
incredible, a journey through blue neon, rainy modern
city. i have precisely no time for gravity though, it
just sounds sterile and sucked dry of all the earlier
inspiration, to me. Anyway, hong kong is a
transcendental masterpiece, and is not to be missed.
