My take on this is quite different. While the release isn't as "out there" as previous items in the series I feel that it is essential. It is just good music. At first the music is rather ambient with what seems to be a processed female voice repeating a statement over and over. The ambience it creates is rather nice and somewhat engrossing. But slowly the track develops into a minimal cologne style techno track. That is where the beauty of the song is. In the fact that it can move from one style to another seemlessly. What you are left with is 20 minutes of mesmerizing music. -daniel Head Monkey Mad Monkey Records http://monkey.eliteware.com
