Having seen several "critics" (but aren't we all?) list this title by Scanner in their year's best, I was wondering how it sounds. I've never been a big fan of his audio piracy with its roots in crass voyeurism - how does this compare? Is it a more mature composition(s), or more of the same? Un-easy listening or melancholy ambient? Comparisons would be nice ... thank you ahead of time.

more beat oriented

yes. the audio sampling clips are waay more sparce and not the center of the release. i like the voyeurism stuff myself, but this is a fresh break from it, put to good use, something i thought other idm artists would end up doing themselves after sometime. never thought i'd be giving a commercial release like this the big up...

kinda like a downtempo version of "this heat" - the 70s/80s prog rock band on the UK label called "these" also sorta like the slow sound of "blue" circa '96 on emisions audio output, release was clled "mexican church" agent mully icq 33102742 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
