I've said a few words already. It's a loungey piece but a little heavier on the orchestration and composition, and lighter on the purely cheesy. The aphex remix is similar to HAB D&B madness, but he does use big chunks of the original, which suggests he likes the source material better than with some things he's remixed. The other mixes fit into either trip hop or 'Intelligent Drum & Bass' pigeonholes. I really dig it -- 'Easy listening' with an IDM flair. --------------------------------------------------------------------- "I read Keyboard, but it's like staring at a book with pictures of simple looking but expensive machines." -- Michael Lazarev NEW CD Comp Electronic Music Project http://soli.inav.net/~kent/emp.html Kent Williams kent@inav.net CADSI 2651 Crosspark Road Coralville IA 52241 (319) 338 6053 (home) (319) 626 6700 x 219 (work) (319) 626 3489 (fax)
