I just got the new Omicron lp (cd) Acrocosm and it seems pretty darn good after a couple listens. It's nothing like the Symbolis EP (assuming this is the same Omicron), being much more ambient and much less trancey. The tracks are very ambient at times, with sweeping noises, throbbing basslines, and quirky little beeps! Heavy on the textures and atmospheres. [fletcher] ================= This isn't a flame against you for liking it, but I feel compelled to offer a contrary opinion. I just got that CD as well, and consider it one of the most boring ambient albums I've ever heard. About as interesting as opening the window and listening to crickets (which you can do for free). Al.
