I can definetly relate to this. Coming from someone who really valued Amber and
Basscad, Chiastic Slide was really off-meter and noisy to me *at first*. After
I got used, err... aquired it's taste, I love it just as much as the others. I
think Ae's albums express a different set of emotions and thoughts about
occurences, each track means something, possibly.. but it's interpretation is
left to the listener; although they say they make the music so they'll have
something to listen to.

Well, similar to Chiastic Slide, and accompanying it really, is Envane.

I think I have a few beef's with Public Energy #1. The beginning is just
wonderful, how he let's more highs in to direct the sound, channeling it in
almost a circle (atleast in my car), and than building, and eventually filling
it with a lush melody. But than other tracks seem to be very repetitive, such
as track 4; it really tires me. I really like Speedy J: G Spot, especially the
live disc, and I also very much like Ginger. On another Speedy J side note,
I was listening to Ginger today, and I have to ask if the following annoys
anyone else:
Ginger: Track 10, starting at 02.20, Jochem establishes a really nice flowing
beat, up front with a nice variant melody. By 03.00 it's really moving, and
really really nice, but at 03.20, he just kills it! Talk about mom walking in
on you.

I think Chiastic Slide is noisier than Public Energy #1 on a conventional
scale, but than again, who defines "noise?"

Check out Single Cell Orchestra: Dead Vent 7.
Also, definetly check out Single Cell Orchestra: Single Cell Orchestra.
