Hear hear. At the risk of drawing this out... I thought Mr Namlook's Dreamfish stuff was OK but I grabbed a copy of Seasons Greetings = Winter without a listen beforehand and never have I heard such a monotonous disc. A whole 60 minutes of basically one patch and one chord. I can't even go to sleep while listening to it because it annoys the s**t out of me.
