Sunday, May 22nd, 1994 at 11:19pm greetings from a lurker - i have been so moved by this album that i feel it is an obligation to mention it once again to a list that considers itself to be interested in intelligent dance music. i buy in excess of fifty discs a year, and this has to be one of the best discs that that i've bought in the last five years. one of the most consistently delicious that i've EVER bought, i'd venture... every song is essential. such ethereal waves of transcendent production intertwined with rich, lush, spectral hooks surfing the one-eyed dubgroove swells. very electronic and spacious. reverb from a primo lexicon or sony, obviously ddd, sublime wavestation, totally fresh drum sounds. this is the thompson twins with a new name, so expect pop sensibility. bpm generally around 100. anyone involved in cannabis and intelligent electronic dance music should get this for their collection. enjoy the bliss. ______________________________________________________________________________ the capricorn top 5: 5. "don't expect me to help you fake it." 4. "work with your passion and i'll work with mine." 3. "don't expect me to just connect the dots." 2. "tell me something i don't know." 1. "at this point things get a little hazy" as long as the music is loud enough we won't hear the world falling apart. jwgrote@ucs.indiana.edu ______________________________________________________________________________
