I think the track Windowlicker is pretty weak, but it works well with the video. I really don't think this track has much of a track life to it. I think those that do like it, will grow bored of it pretty soon. Track 2 is just toss. Track 3 Nannou is a pretty nice track. I don't know if is worth buying for the one track. With all the time Aphex Twin has had since his last release...is this the best he could do? On another note, i just got some cds from Pitchcadet and they are really good. I'll post about them later, when I have more time. Cheers _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com
