no,definitely not.IMHO it isn't his best release,i mean i like it but "explorimenting beats" is far superior.it's much more subtle,cooler beats and more experimental. -drew now:gescom-motor

I thought explorimenting was way boring compared to the other great stuff, like nightmare alley, shape of rage, states of mind, etc... explorimenting just gave me the same reaction as listening to the new chemical brothers. (opinions)

Funny, I thought Explorimenting was far more intersting than Shape of Rage (That's the one on Leaf right?) I thought Shape had some intersting ideas but the A-side just dragged on for far to loooong. but to each their own... Howie
