Right on. Thanx. There's one indeed. And it's that groovy 3 against 4 beat that we all know and love. I dunno. I love "Embody". Except for that pig sound in the last cut. Tell me true - isn't it Sheila Chandra's voice on the first track? Yes, lots of FSOL samples, though I suppose FSOL can't well go and complain, now can they? Brilliant layering on this record, I thought. And gents Leeb and Fuller always string out the most funked basslines. "Hemisphere" is yet another song that artfully rips the Led Zep beat from "When the Levee Breaks", possibly the most sampled beat in history apart from James Brown. By the way, the Synaesthesia records are nominally credited to an R. Deckard, largely thought to largely not exist. Could it be you, or are you the Doppelganger? Wonderingly, and unlawfully, and unlawyerfully, and even synaesthetically, Zenon M. Feszczak Ambientologist
