If you love that album, get Sakura, his first ambient album. That's the
album that's captivating me right now (i bought both) rather than
Grinning Cat, but don't get me wrong, Grinning Cat is excellent. Sakura
is good enough to stand along side Biosphere's Substrata and Aphex
Twin's two ambient records as some of the better ambient music released
this side of Brian Eno.
