That's "Spheres." I don't know about "cashing in"... whatever the motive, the music is GREAT! I'm sorry you didn't like. For me, it's one of the Top 5 electronic albums of the year.

Well, I just got the single for "Flowers Become Screens" and the Enigma comparison is certainly apt. I'm not wild about this one. The Dossier stuff is much better, in general. Mini review: 3 mixes of the title track. first mix is straight enigma. second mix has a more housey beat with organs and 303s! third mix is a half-time reggae interpretation. last track sounds like enigma again. think i'm gonna skip this album.

for the billionth time, Oliver Leib has nothing to do with Bill Leeb. since i have this anal compulsion to weigh in on every issue, i'll just say that i've never heard anything from oliver leib that i liked. /jon
