I have noticed this! I’m very image-sound oriented. While listening to the new album, I kept getting sudden bursts of memories and pictures from my life. The associations from those samples dredged up times and places I originally heard them. This album really is swell.

i dont know if you have noticed this but there are a lot of 'classic' samples from the orb back catalog that are hidden throughout the album like little easter eggs :)

I imagine myself eyes closed eating dried pineapples on a bean bag
chair in a chillout room at a 1992 MW-RAVES event as i listen to this.
