>Abstract Theme Variations is offering you a freaky -with taste- zapping

The Abolition Of Rules and Styles! What is
>constant though, is once again the passion for grooves and smashing beats.
>A manifesto for freedom in music.

>ATV is: action, tenderness, emotions, politic, adult programs, and many
>more! No limits of styles allowed, even within a track, like the furious
>SLF/DRK, going from smooth, intelligent electronica to brazilian anthem
>then turning in straight square techno. The only way to obtain the same

>More diverse than Sub Rosas cinemascopic big beat description, Bump &
>Grinds debut album also commandingly reels in frenetic drum & bass,
>swirling ambient techno and march-of-the-robots electro. Two remixes by
>Scanner and Third Eye Foundation justify those producers lofty
>reputations. Alternative Press, May 1999

>Init Sequence by Bump & Grind does just that
it bumps and it grinds
>with its varied and textured mix of techno beats, jungle breaks, and
>ambient waves. Never a dull or overly repetitive moment on this well
>produced CD that also features remixes by Third Eye Foundation and Scanner.
>Bump & Grind will lift you up with their cinematic atmospheres and then
>slam you down with their big beats and breaks. Heck, the well designed CD
>inserts are reason enough to get this release. Outburn, #8

>On the basis of brevity alone, it would make things a lot easier if Bump &
>Grinds title was simply self explanatory. Fortunately, though, there is a
>lot more to this band than will ever be conveyed in that name; in that
>respect its not misleading. Init Sequence mixes carefully constructed
>atmospherics and melodic overtones with almost every form of electronic
>rhythm possible, from drum n bass to techno. As the album progresses, the
>songs frequently shift pace and direction, and the outcome is a fully
>realized collection of diverse, cinemascopic tracks. Scanner does a solid
>guest remix of track 12, and Third Eye Foundation end the disk with a
>stellar reconstruction of Pan Odyssey, which has virtually no resemblance
>to the original song and takes it to new heights
