:: It's just Mooseic
(An interview with Adam Butler aka Vert):
"...The fact that it's really physical and funky, and at the same
time really evocative, kind of opens up visions and hints of

2001-07-09 :: Pretty Boy Crossover :: The Building and Formation (Surgery)

lively percussion..."
2001-05-31 :: Vert :: Nine Types of Ambiguity (Sonig)

2001-05-31 :: Orbital :: The Altogether (FFRR)
"...The rest of the album does have a few golden moments, but they are
