I have had the priveledge of getting an advance copy of the vapourspace disc...or is it a priveledge? It is a continuous play disc...it has around 12 tracks, but they are all connected as one long track...though the mixes are not all smooth transitions...it is a good album in general, with some things I would have done differently.....they are definitely atypical when it comes to the style...but they do overstate things a bit when they say on the cover of the disc..."the sounds you will hear as you enter the gates of heaven" (I would rather hear the Aubrey mixes...or Halcyon and on and on...Or Amporphous Androgenous) The disc begins with a Vangelis-like synth build...leading into an eerie siren sound that chaotically builds into the first beats...about three minutes into the disc...after which the disc becomes a bit more predictable...but good...good enough to warrant a purchase, for that matter. I would buy it but I would be aware of the possibility for the disc to be one in your collection that will need to "age"...it might have to grow on you a bit....but maybe not...but for me...it took a couple of days to really like it. I give it a B+... this concludes the almighty review by me...(all opinions are mine..be yer own judge...i am no expert...i might be a putz...) peace, jasonosaj...
