No Pete i think you have the same cd but probably just different musical taste. But if you give it another listen perhaps you'll enjoy the ethno- dubby groove that is conjured through the tracks with beats. You must be recalling the bubbling and chirping on the ambient tracks. I personally enjoy this disk quite a bit. It has a wholeness that makes it a cohesive project rather than a collection of tracks like "The Big Chill", et al. the faster grooves fucking thump my sub woof! I equate my listening experince to perhaps a huricane. The calm before the storm... BAMM! all hell breaks loose... Back to the eye of the storm... POW! its the second round of beats.... and finally the spooky silence of picking up the pieces. one more shot? %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Peace, Guido For all your R&D needs... travalen@kcmetro.cc.mo.us ~~ ~ ~ ~ ~home of The Private Conspiracy (Shhhh!)~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%the Deep Thought Council%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
