speaking of this album, i've been listening to it alot lately. it really is quite good...not so much in it's musical complexity but more in it's mindset. its not an album i would sit and analyze (i will if anyone is interested), but when played, it kinda has a way of evoking images of post-millennial urban landscapes and the like. needless to say, the overall feel is 'soothing', but not in the ambient sense. it has this optimistic (and please don't confuse this with 'happy') mood throughout - even in the darker tunes, perhaps gained through the periodic juxtaposition of simultaneous major and minor key melodies....often occurring in the rhythmic elements as well as the melodic. also, the album does display multiple facets of the dnb spectrum and it does it fairly well. if anyone is interested in a tune by tune review (if it hasn't been presented already) let me know. |_-.| np.boymerang.botf.lazarus

I think he means that it inspires visions, there's nothing wrong with that, try it sometime :) on another note, anyone interested in hearing some of the IDM sounds coming from the demoscene should check out ftp://ftp.scene.org/pub/music/artists/dune/bstates-origami-live97.mp3 for some really great music. This is of a live gig (those familiar with the demoscene may know them) Dune/Orange, Yolk/CNCD and Legend/Parallax did at a party in Finland called Abduction. I am not sure if it is a streamable MP3. You could check www.scene.org. This is also for Chris Graves who wanted a copy of this, I thought others may be interested as well. __ __\ \ / /_\ \ \_____/ www.freq-div.home.ml.org
