The original has its moments, but to me sounds a little sparse during some songs. But this makes it the purrrrefect remix disc then, don't it? Minimal basic breaks put through a handful of different treatments. I don't have the remix disc yet, but i know it will be excellent (i am remembering what Atom Heart did on NUF's Golden Star rmxs). Damn fine. What i really like about the original Oscillations, though, is the synth washes in some of the tracks. Beautiful long intros and outros that can be mixed with other things. I recognized some of these synthscapes on the Marley Mix Translation disc, which i also use to mix over other stuff. Sounds like these really fill out beat-oriented minimalist tracks, be they house, trance, or whatever. no@h OnNow: Link Amazon Amenity Chameleon rmx "No kitty...!
