Without a doubt, 30.7.94 or "Tripping On Sunshine" or whatever that dayglo orange one is called has got to be one of my favorite ambient albums of all time. Track 2 (forget the title) is absolutely above reproach. "Kitchen" is a fine example of circa '93-'94 ambient techno/idm, but I haven't had the opportunity to hear "Present" yet, and how that stacks up..... Peace JaMeS
